Someone who should have known better did this.
OK, it was me. Funny thing how it turns out that hooking the USB into a wall adapter works for an iPod, but instead drains a Sony battery even lower. But, after leaving it plugged into the computer for an hour or so, the computer beeped, and the red charging light came on the reader. It took a while, but it did fully recharge.
EDIT: It takes exactly long enough to find the Sony warranty/return policy online for the red light to come back on.
