I would be willing to wager a large sum of money that a hierarchical directory structure is not, and never will be, supported by the Reader. The non-computer-expert does not understand directory structures and doesn't want them. People forget which directory they've put things in and get all upset when they lose them. Flat file structures are what people want and like, and that's what they get.

You don't really think that Sony aren't capable of programming a hierarchical folder file system, do you? The reason it's the way it is is almost unquestionably because that's what their market research told them the average user wants.

We, in a forum like this, certainly don't represent the "typical user" as far as level of computer knowledge goes.
