So, in case you just haven't seen it, you are NOT missing the feature. "My Files" is exactly the same as the Astak -- just graphically prettier. Just drop those little folders all over your SD card (or the miniscule Nook memory), and there you go.

From my experience with the Sony, Calibre could auto-build collections for you using the tags. And so a book would wind up in multiple collections which is useful.
If I'm in the mood for an "Adventure" story, why should it also ignore my SciFi/Fantasy books as well? Plenty of those types of books there too. Being able to have a book in multiple collections (which the nook seems to have issues with in the filesystem as far as I can tell) is a bonus for those of us who mentally browse by genre rather than author. For the latter (or Aztak users), yeah you are right, if you can live without cover art.
