And how do you decide?

I'm probably THE charter member of 'tech illiterati' so please bear with me.

Does each download completely overwrite the existing data or does it just update?

I have wireless, but I'm right on the edge of the hinterlands so service is lousy, downloading is slow and anything over 3 Mb, I usually wait until I can get to a hotspot - or I end up with small corruptions and large frustration.

THANKS!
IMHO Check the sections in the 'What is New' section on the Calibre home page (There is a copy of just the Latest one, as a sticky in this section) feature(s) list , Bugs fixed to see if there is a 'Gotta have it now' update. If you are a user of the many 'User Plugins', check the version requirements ( https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...67&postcount=1 ) for their needed latest update (I don't know if the PI Update Notification only shows those that apply to your version of Calibre)
