Filling in metadata automatically is something I'd never even try, I can't imagine any scenario when it would give even "decent" results and not create more of a mess to then clean up. I don't think that's being fussy just to want the info correct.

I add books to my Calibre Library as I get them, and for each and every book I then edit the metadata manually where I can make sure I select the correct book with the info I want and then select a cover of my choice, not necessarily the one that came with the book.

Fortunately I stumbled on Calibre right after getting my first ereader thanks to this forum, so I never had the headache of trying to add in hundreds of books at a time. But doing a few manually as I get them takes just a few minutes of time and is a step I never skip with new books.
