Well, I did that to my collection, which was 770 books when I started. Luckily, the fetch metadata button worked 80% of the time, and I went back to the source to download info when it didn't. I was afraid it was just my AR nature, but I am really glad I took the time to get everything into Calibre. I now only have 2 pages of books on my kindle (had 70) and it works better, and I am able to search for books to read much more easily.
