I've searched through Preferences and it all seems to be checked in the right places, but I must be missing something.
It work for Single Metadata downloads, but doesn't on Bulk?
BTW AFAIK Calibre never added 'external' metadata on a normal Add Books. It will read Metadata from File CONTENTS, if that option is chosen.

It did add Metadata when doing a 'Add From ISBN'. I assumed that was a special case.
