It took ~5 seconds for Calibre to load for me.

I can appreciate that a folder structure works quicker for some, but for me I'm doing a lot more than just copying a file over. Normally: load, dedrm, edit, edit meta data, convert, copy
Don't know about barryem, but for me *any* time spent loading Calibre would be longer than just using the file system. To find a book on Mac, I hit Command-Space to pop up Spotlight search, then start typing the first few letters of the author or title I am interested in.

The same would apply to Windows or Linux (though on Ubuntu the desktop search integrated into Unity doesn't work nearly as well for me as Spotlight does).
