My decades long experience with all kind of devices with storage is that it's always, always, always better to let them organize their content. They know better. I know cases where people tried to copy/delete SAT-recordings via computers, in the end they managed to delete the logical pointer to the data, which remained on HDD without being accesible - the only way to recover the lost space was a re-format ha ha ha. Minidisc owners (NetMD) can join this choir.

If you have such a huge library that you cannot manage yourself, do you think you'll have to time to actually read it?
What do you mean you load your books via Windows Explorer? And the reader does nothing to sort the books unless you want them just listed by author, title or add date. I need them split up into various groups like writing, history, Dark Hunter, etc....I have about 400 books on this thing so they need logical sorting so I can easily find the ones I want. Trying to do it with the software that comes with the Sony is a pain, it is slow and awkward.
