I've been seeing you rave about calibre many times , may I ask what benefits using the library gives you? I don't see any problem sticking to windows explorer to locate the files if they're well organized enough.
It's a lot more then organization. There is the editor, the plugins (one of which removes DRM), managing eBooks on my Kobo, page count, the description, format conversion, font subsetting, lossless image compression, seeing covers, and much much more.

As for organization, I can sort in a number of different ways. I can have different libraries.

There's just so much you cannot do with a file tree. A file tree loses so much. it's just a lot to say.

What you asked about in the first post is so easily done with Calibre. I used to use ePub Optimizer, but Calibre is so much easier.
