So you need a broken OS (win 10), or an overpriced one that might get canned any day (MacOS on x86-64 vs iOS on ARM).
Sony manage to cripple themselves again. I remember the Net MD and the stupid application needed to "check in" and "Check out" the tracks copied to it. Even if your own content. Also inability to copy off your own live interviews except via analogue.
The only reason to not have Mass Storage mode is some strange desire for DRM or something. ONLY being able to use a program to put on PDFs is crazy.
I can imagine the annotation uses a database and that needs a program. It would though be trivial for third parties to access the database if the spec was given.
For a product intended for Drawing Offices, Engineering and Business, their design philosophy to interface to it is crazy.
