I guess I'm somewhere in the middle. I like my eyecandy, I do. And if a cover that calibre finds on it's metadata source is hideous, and I *know* there's a better one out there, I'll usually go track it down and replace the hideous one. Or if a reissued (in ebook) series comes out with different/worse covers. The reissues of the Aaron Elkins Gideon Oliver series come to mind. I recently got all these, and when putting them into calibre, the reissues all have basically the same cover. It's not horrid, but it's not the ones I remember seeing on the physical books when I had them. So, I let calibre do it's metadata search and replaced the new ones with the older ones that I remembered.
That being said though - I don't *think* I'm anal about it. If I can't find the more appealing (to me) cover, I'll usually just let it go and forget about it.
