For everything, other than DRM books, you might want to look into Calibre.
Calibre
and
Calibre - Frequently Asked Questions

Although Calibre can do a lot, you only need to learn a little to do 90% of what you'll want to do. If you find that you need to do more, you can learn it as you need to.

Basically, Calibre, is a way to organize, and load, books on your reader. But with Calibre you can also set up categories that mean something to you. Not just what a programmer set up. And, no, you do not need to do any programming at all. You just add a column and name it what you want.

What I've added (to the program on the computer) are;
READ - where I can put a check mark if I've already read it.
and
BOUGHT FROM - this helps me to bo back to the place I bought it in case I want to write a review, or download it again.

And there is a lot more, but start out easy.

One of the things I miss is the info on the back of the book jacket or back cover. Now you can add that as the second page of your ebook. Just wait till you have a lot of books on your Sony. And you will. It's hard not to add more and more.

Thank you Thank you
