Via your Web Browser. You will download a small file called 'URLLink.acsm', or something similar.

When you open the small file in eBookLibrary, Sony's software will download the ePub file, and authenticate your compute and device to read it. This might take a few minutes depending on your connection speed

You'll have to use the Sony software to copy the file to your device or to read it. Calibre can't do anything with other than tell you the title and author.
If you change devices you'll either have to use Adobe's software or that devices software.
I tested this earlier today and I can open the same file in Sony's software or in Adobe's. Calibre couldn't do anything with it.
