Long story; please bear with me.

My 505 ran out of juice; it lost the authorization and all content.

After fully charging with the wall charger, I hooked it up to the Sony Store and re-authorized it.

I use the Sony Library to transfer files. When I try to transfer any LRX content, I get a message saying that I have to download the EPUB version of that file -- even though I have the LRX on my hard drive.

nI called Sony "support" and the rep claimed that yes, indeed, the LRX format can no longer be transferred to Sony devices.

Can this possibly be true? Does Sony really expect customers to re-download perfectly good LRX files as EPUBs just to transfer them?

I can't believe more people aren't complaining, if it's true.
