For those outside of America, perhaps Caliber is better.

I only use Sony Software and have no problems. Sony makes the unit and one should stick to compatible software.
Considering the PSR-300 I own is very finicky and tends to reset itself on its own, wiping Collections but not books, I prefer Calibre. Quite simply, I don't have to redo all my collections (which is a pain) everytime my reader wipes them off from the Sony Software when all I have to do is keep tags current in Calibre. Next time I send all the books, the tags are translated automatically as Collections, easy as pie.

As for sending books, the Sony Software always crashes when I try to send all my library - not so with Calibre.

Sony makes good hardware but poor software, always have, always will (I do own more than 1 Sony product that uses a proprietary software).
