From Fictionwise if you are wanting 'Secure' books, which most stuff from the big publishers is then you'll want Secure Adobe. These are PDF's and they are the only secure format that FW carries that works on the Sony. However you won't find any really recent title there in that format as they haven't added any to their site since January 2008.

FW sells a lot of secure books in MS Reader and Mobipocket format, but to use those you'd need to remove the DRM and then convert them with Calibre. I know you said you weren't comfortable doing this just thought it'd give you a more complete answer.


FW also sells books in what they call Multiformat. Those are not DRM protected and can be downloaded in LRF (Sony) format.



I know you said you wanted to support FW, but since they haven't added any Secure Adobe books since January 2008 you may need to look at Books On Board or somewhere else if you're wanting more recent titles.
