I've run into a scenario where the metadata.calibre file on my Voyage is 84MB, with only 1,812 books on (all AZW3 files, no manga, no PDFs, etc...). Yet my Oasis 2 metadata.calibre file is only 40MB and that device has almost 5,900 books on it (all AZW3 files, no manga, no PDFs, etc...). Why the disparity? And is there any sort of repair that can be done to the metadata.calibre file?
