I've had the same type of situation but of them when the new version has extraneous junk in the downloaded book title (does anyone really think that adding : A Novel to the book title is useful?) but it doesn't happen en masse to the point where I would want to accept the potential issues of a automated mass merge. Very few people would like to have their ebook library omeletted.

How are you finding the duplicates if the title has changed? The ones I've found have been when I've edited the metadata and run Find Duplicates on both my intake and main libraries afterwards.
