Sony Reader – Calibre

Sep 3, 2009

Note: For the next few posts, I will be discussing my choice of eBook, what I think of the device, the software, and finish off with a few tips for users.
 
As I have stated, Sony eBook Library is not a bad piece of software, but there is no handling of metadata whatsoever. The better choice is called Calibre, and is a free, open source alternative to using Sony eBook Library.
 
Calibre supports Kindle and iPhone as well as Sony Reader, and not only handles metadata, but also has features like automatic news subscriptions, format conversions and even a content server option, allowing you access to your eBook collection from anywhere in the world.
