I recently got a PRS-505 and I am having the same problem. I suddenly started getting extra copies every time I plugged my reader into the usb and ran the elibrary software. I was up to 4 or 5 copies of each book before I said screw it!.. and installed Calibre and am using that instead. Now if I purchase a book, i just save it externally using the elibrary and import into calibre. Calibre is a bit buggy as well, every time I add a new book, the reader erases all my bookmarks and last page settings. (meaning I always have to make notes of where I am in each book) A bit of a pain, but better than having every book keep multiplying! I really enjoy reading books on my reader, but I am convinced this product is NOT ready for mass market yet. I mean really, it should just work without this kind of nonsense.
