I remember the conversations, but I didn't realize you were moving forward with either option.
My main goal for this cycle has been this 'cloud' functionality. As I have mentioned several times, none of the CC improvements made in the last 4 to 8 months have any effect on new sales. They do improve current user satisfaction, but that doesn't do much to convince new users to shell out the money.

As for what I will build, I have tentatively decided to add it to CC. I have not yet decided whether it will be chargeable (IAP) or simply an improvement. If "improvement", I haven't yet decided yet whether to raise CC price.

I don't know what a "calibre server running in the cloud" is, so I won't be building support for that.

I will be looking at building an import from a calibre library either in the cloud or on the local device. The cloud part has some complications, as Amazon seems to have some unspecified rules about permitting listing apps with cloud support.

I am specifically not asking to reopen the discussion we had in the other thread. That played itself out, and it is now up to me to decide what to do.
