Questions about Calibre

Rob_IX and a few others mentioned the use of Calibre. Rob said that he removed ebook library and only uses Calibre. I installed Calibre and it is certainly stable and has great features. However, it only seems to recognize my 600 reader if Library is running. That may not happen if there is no Library software.

There are a number of other issues that may be just my inexperience with ebook readers. First, from Calibre, I can't figure out how to access the Sony book store, or is there another way to buy books for the 600? The ebook library software seems to be to Sony books what iTunes is to Apple music. Second, how do you manage books on an SD memory card from Calibre? The way I do it with Library is to buy or import the book to library and then transfer the book directly to to an SD card plugged into my reader.

What I'm trying to get at in this post, is can I really un-install the Sony software and do everything that I want to do using Calibre instead?
