Calibre
I typically like to let Amazon keep my book purchases on their server by deleting them from my kindle, I am wondering what are the advantages to downloading the books to my PC and using Calibre to manage the library. I can understand that hen I do the job this way I have a lot more control over the organization of the library and i can organize it into a logical fashion. However I do not see the point in managing my library locally if Amazon is willing to host my library for me. Other than the reason I stated above why to you manage your library locally? Of course I come from an era where if you had a gigabyte of hard drive space you were ecstatic and windows probably took up 90% of that so I kept most of my data on floppy disks. These days with two terabyte drives costing under $100 its not necessary to hog drive space like I am used to but I still seem to be thinking by the old model.
