Unfortunately (for users), Sony tends to err on the side of draconian when it comes to issues of copyright and DRM. Anyone who's owned an earlier Sony minidisc will tell of the frustration of sonicstage, basically treating users like potential music pirates and criminals. I'm sure the over the top restrictions had a lot to do with the demise of that format, which was technically very very good otherwise. I hope it's not going to be the same for their ereaders.
