I find the selection offered in the Sony store too limiting.
How do I work with the better stocked stores, please? Can I even buy from Kindle and convert the files on the T1 without the need for my PC?

Yes, it ain't brilliant.
Don't know what effect rooting has, but you can simply sign-up to any store that sells on-line and purchase as wanted.

And kindle books can't be loaded directly onto any third party reader, but [ "allegedly" ] can, of course, only be read on kindles due to DRM ........

I have heard of a site that has some information on DRM - I believe it might have been called Apprentice Alf's Blog or similar ......
