Calibre does everything the Sony software does plus a lot more - format conversion, auto-dpwnload of news sources, editing of metadata, for example. In my experience, it's more reliable too. I can create collection in Calibre too, but it's via editing metadata. much more flexible than the Sony, but less intuitive for me.

One caveat - I do everything on Macs - maybe Windows versions are different
Of course, Calibre doesn't do one thing Sony software does. Help you borrow or buy books.
