I'm reporting a user experience. After reading this thread and giving the matter some thought, I'll simply hit "cancel" more often, but keep receiving the notification. It's not how I handle updates for any other Windows application, but it's fine now that I have a better sense of what constitutes an "update" for Calibre. I'm good.
Where Kovid's bandwidth and the broader user experience are concerned, there may be room for improvement. The current scenario is probably sending the wrong message, imparting too much urgency to incremental updates and making the update process a far larger part of the user experience than it needs to be. Every time there's a "How do you use Calibre?" thread, there's a chorus of "I use Calibre to update Calibre, har har har." There are also numerous threads linked earlier about finding ways around the current update options. It may all be a sign that something is out of whack.
