The way I look at is this... There is a possibility that some company other then Sony might someday come out with a reader that I want more then my current Sony. If I do it right here, I can take most of my books and move them to this new device. But if I go purchasing my books from Sony in their proprietary closed DRM laden format, I very well and truly may get stuck with books I can never read again on some other reader. So unless someone comes out with a way to break the DRM and do a proper conversion from LRX files, then I won't be purchasing books from Sony once my credit with them is over. Yes I will purchase books from Sony using my credit since they are essentially free.
