In light of the new, improved Personal Documents functionality, do there need to be some changes to this 'random ASIN' thing that calibre does?
Amazon seems to run .mobi files through some conversion, not simply storing the file in the PD library. The file size is different, file extension is .azw, presumably they are adding a UID somewhere also. I haven't looked at the resultant .azw to see what exactly is in there but I trust someone involved in calibre dev will be doing so.
In the meantime I am turning on the 'Enable sharing' MOBI output preference, as this apparently turns off the 'random ASIN' behavior—in case that interferes with what Amazon is doing.
Thanks.
