To better help you, please answer a few questions. Are you in the US? What kind of computer do you have - Windows or Mac (and which version)? Do you belong to a library? Does it use OverDrive for ebooks and audiobooks?

Thanks! I've got a 4gb Clip+ (with an 8gb msd card - yay for memory expansion!) No iThings, but I had to install itunes for my ripping program to function. It was helpful for editing some metadata, but again, it scrambled chapters and had to be manually sorted out. I am just trying out Nightengale for cataloging - it seems to have metadata editing capabilities too.
I'm on Win7, and yes, belong to a few libraries. I download an (WMA) audiobook yesterday through Overdrive, but I haven't transferred it yet. My DLs from Downpour are zipped, so I've been manually unzipping them to Author directories and drag/dropping them to the Sansa's 'Audiobook' folders. Some come up 'Unknown' in the playlist, and that's going to drive my OCD nuclear in a short while.
Thanks for the help and the thread :]
