True, you can't buy lrf from Sony any more. But, I buy epubs, strip the DRM and then convert to lrf. Calibre makes it simple to convert back and forth. Actually, I now have an epub and a lrf version of all the books I own.

I must agree that LRF is ideal for my Sony 505. I understand why you are maintaining 2 versions. With LRF everything works quickly. Epub works, but it is slower and yes the page numbering is a little strange but I live with it. I see the need to try to adopt a common format, but LRF remains great for Sony.
I think people are mostly accepting epub. As an ebook seller, I used to sell the LRF versions frequently and now hardly ever. Most sales are going to epub and pdf.
