I agree that conversion of all titles by Sony from LRX to ePub is a possible approach. I can't see any advantage to this for Sony over providing LRX reading firmware.
The advantage is that since there are lots of devices that do and will support ePub via ADE, Sony can sell ePub to people who do not own a Sony Reader. This means Sony can be a bigger player then Amazon in the long run since more people will go there to get content.
