Good info. And thank you for all the work you've done with Calibre!

I would MUCH rather use a configuration tool on my Mac, get everything organized, then upload a JSON to the Kindle and reboot than deal with the horribly tedium of slogging through page after page to mark something as part of a collection only to find I forgot a few files than have to go back and do it all over again.

It was pretty easy to find info on the collections.json file. I'm looking into building an app to generate it using the common sense folder paradigm now.

Thanks again, and especially for Calibre.
