I'm not sure that I follow your argument. It's just as easy to create and upload your own content to a Kindle as it is to a Sony, given that it uses the popular MobiPocket book format, for which a wealth of free book creation tools exist.
You can copy files to a Kindle via a USB connection in exactly the same way you can with a Sony, or a CyBook, or an iLiad. Can you elaborate about what way you consider the Kindle to be more restrictive?
