For as long as I've used calibre, maybe a couple years, whenever amazon lists the series in parenthesis it is moved to the title field.
What would be very useful is if Calibre could automatically move the series from the title field to the series field. I thought update 2.62 would do this, though there was no change whatsoever to the way series were handled when adding metadata. If they were pulled from the title on amazon, they would stay in the title in Calibre.
Kovid, this would be a very time saving move, if it's feasible and you're not overwhelmed with labor already.
