Kovid,
That is my point exactly. Amazon is placing the asin# (and some other gobbledygook) in the filename for their books -- presumably to guarantee that the collections feature can distinguish among the many different kindle versions of the same title that Amazon sometimes sells. When an Amazon book is brought over to Calibre all this extraneous stuff appears in the title. My question is: if I remove the extraneous stuff (it's ugly) on Calibre, and then transfer the book back to the kindle, will the filename put back on the kindle still be unchanged or not? Later today I'll run a few experiments with Amazon books, and let you know the results.
