Not really.
Think about it

Your computer has the Calibre Library. Calibre currently only allows 1 computer to maintain the Library.
Someone else in your family has a book to add.
Previously, they had to bug you to add it so the content server could supply it to others.
NOW you can have Calibre monitor a folder, so you can set up a shared 'Book Drop' folder and anyone in the share group can make a deposit and have it appear in the Library.
