Are we saying that once I deautorize the reader from my sony library, and they authorize it once they've purchased it, all the books on the reader will go away?
If the books are DRMed, regardless if they were free, then they will not work with the reader once the reader is deauthorized. Authorization is tied to your account and as long as the reader is authorized under your account the books can be viewed on it, but once you deauthorize the reader the books won't work. At least that is how it is supposed to work. If the books are stripped of DRM, then they can be viewed on any Sony reader.
