Reader Library no longer paginates LRF/LRX ahead of time. So using LRF now means a longer delay to open them then to open ePUb.

I also have a question: What does Calibre do that other SW cannot perform better? Managing your books: any file manager is easier to use. Converting books: BookDesigner is an order of magnitude better than Calibre. Transferring books: the Sony software does it with preformatting.
Calibre converts quite well. The quality of the conversion does depend on the quality of the source. Book Designer does not save to ePub and that makes Book Designer sub-optimal for outputting eBooks.
