Back when the Sony Reader did not have ePub, Sony wanted to add another format. Sony wanted to add Mobipocket. Amazon said in order to add Mobipocket, Sony would have to remove LRX as Mobipocket was to be the only format with DRM. Sony went with ePub with ADE via Adobe. That would not have happened if Mobipocket allowed Sony to use the format without the silly restriction.

Amazon owns Mobipocket. So the fact that Sony does not sell Mobipocket format is Amazon's fault.
