Love the new upgrade and thank you to everyone that put time and effort into updating this application! I have been impressed with the new features that calibre has come out with the past few weeks as they are really useful.

I have already setup a few of the new features, particularly the column for what books I've read and my Favorite Authors category. I also like how you can adjust the size of the various sections.

Just one query that someone may be able to answer - there was mention that calibre can now optionally download tags/reviews/rating from amazon.com, but I cannot see how this option is selected?

Also, I found that when I tried renaming an authors name as per the video it just brought up a message that it was already in use. It would be helpful if this can prompted to ask if we would like to merge the authors. I often find that I have the same author listed twice in calibre as it could be listed as A.B. Brown or with spacing A. B. Brown which can be confusing when looking up books. But otherwise all is good!

Thanks!
