That's exactly what I consider doing it manually... doing one book at a time. I use Calibre's Get Metadata, verify that it pulled info for the correct book and fix it if not. So I think we use the same process, just our wording is different. Automated or bulk metadata means (to me at least) that each individual book wasn't verified, that Calibre was just left to fill in what it selected as best choice, which can be a crapshoot.
