For a good while now, I have also been using my own program to view and correct the metadata to my own preferred specifications, which is then updated in calibre.

Add to that the fact, that my latest acquisitions are only briefly on a PC with a web connected version of calibre, and are mostly dealt with on an older non-web connected PC, so the opportunity to gain a synopsis from another source hasn't been a consideration until recently.

Furthermore, I would need to adapt my program(s), which I have not yet seriously considered or examined.
