I assume these mp3s have DRM if purchased at Amazon, right?

First, MP3 files purchased from Amazon DO NOT have any DRM on them. Surprising and odd, yes; especially considering their stance on DRM'd ebooks. Amazon specifically wanted DRM free MP3's to compete with the DRM'd music on iTunes. So no worries there.
Secondly. it doesn't say that anything with copyright protection will not work on any of the cards. Everything about copy protection on that page refers to MagicGate™ copyright protection technology, which is Sony's proprietary copy protection scheme. The ereader does not use MagicGate™, it's used mainly on their gaming systems and phones. So, no worries there either.

The Duo card should defintely be supported. That page is kind of confusing, but it does show support for Duo cards and lists pics of Duo cards. The manual I received actually says it only supports the Memory Stick Pro-Duo and Duo cards:
Note that it says down on the bottom that operation of all Memory Stick Duos are not guaranteed.
ariinya, is it Sony brand? Does it seem to work with other devices? (if possible to check) FWIW, I use an SD card and it works fine.
