Great, but.. when you edit the metadata, changing the title, and send that book back to the Kindle with Send to Device, are you re-naming the .mbp files to match the re-named book file? That is the only way those notes and highlights are still accessible through MyNotes&Marks.

The alternative would be not to re-name the file, leaving in Amazon's format, but change only the metadata within the file. Then the mbp files would still match up. I was very curious why you re-named the file at all.

And does #4 mean we must be using that sub-directory business with all the separate author and book files. I have disabled that.
