This is true whether you use Sony's software or Adobe's; you STILL HAVE TO REGISTER EACH AND EVER PC YOU WANT TO USE TO PURCHASE AND DOWNLOAD BOOKS, or else they will NOT WORK when transfered to the SONY.

This is a royal PITA if you are traveling and trying to use a friends PC or one at a library or data kiosk to purchase and load books.
Portable VirtualBox. After I gave away my laptop. I just made an XP virtual machine for handling Microsoft Reader, Adobe Digital Editions and Amazon Kindle. The virtual disk image gets backed up once a month while the books are un-DRM'ed and backed up directly after purchase/download.
