I do not think his stance is at all valid.
I do find it strange that the only time I have ever had USB connectivity problems is when using Calibre with the Kobo. I can use Windows with the Kobo all day long, just as a test I even copied and then streamed a movie off both the SD card and the internal memory. I've also added map images and other files to the database through Windows. No problems. I have two external USB drives that can stream to the network, a hub with all sorts of devices attached, none of which have ever even hiccuped. But with Calibre, dropouts. So it might be a database issue, but I can't see how it's a USB issue, which is part of the usual response. Oh well, maybe some day.

Unless there's some reason I'm not aware of I still think it would make sense for the two sides to cooperate and thrash it out to a solution. From what I've read on MR I'm not the only one it's happened to.
