As for calibre, calibre creates its own duplicate copies for internal use, and leaves the originals untouched -- you can do what you want with those. 
The exception is calibre's auto-add folder. Books will be deleted from the auto-add folder when added; if not, calibre wouldn't know which ones were already added!  |
thx schwartz.. that's exactly how i prefer it works
also.. the push of the button on the back is not a reboot.. it's just a quick click that somehow wakes the unit up a little bit differently than the N button does on the front. yeah.. it's old and not the greatest but i prefer the nonbacklight style of old models and it's such a POS that if it gets stolen while i travel.. some poor soul will just have to suffer with it
i'll say this itunes, ibooks and the whole i cumbersome infrastructure of handling media is the biggest POS / joke ever developed in the history of computing. way overcomplicated, buggy, slow and just UNintuitive for people that actually like to have control over their own media and do things quickly and intuitively. i'm not sure if mac zealots realize how bad that crap is.. that's a story for another day.
thx again all for the help here
