Ok, here's when you are going to start thinking I am a bit off.

Whenever I edit medadata, I run a plugin to regenerate the ePub. This insures that the ePub is always current. I then re-copy the ePub to Calibre Companion on my phone. This has the effect of turning my phone into a backup of my library.

As I type this, I it occurs to me that I don't need to insure that the AZW3 files are up to date, since I already have the backups created in ePub.

OK, I will have Calibre create the AZW3s when it copies the files, and I won't worry about recreating them if I update the metadata.

Thanks for the help.
