Calibre – New in Calibre 7.0
https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibre
I just noticed that Calibre is referred to as an eBook manager, which is more in line with what I was talking about in some sense. All of that should fall under `eBook Manager`

Kindle AND books?
Sure thing - another must-have resource if you get a kindle is good library management software. Assuming you download books instead of purchasing them directly from Amazon. The gold standard is Calibre eBook manager (windows and Mac, 100% free). Using it, you can sideload books to your device using a cable or email.

Is the pocketboom era the right choice for me ?
You might want to use Calibre on your PC to manage your library, it is entirely free and a fantastic piece of software. It also can convert eBook formats very well, also the abovementioned AZW format or KFX format, and with plugins, it can even remove copy protection.

Description field in Compile Meta-Data area - is this required?
As for editing your ePub file after compile, I definitely recommend either Calibre or Sigil. Either of these will be integral to a publication workflow, even if you get most of the job done with Scrivener. There is no better way to figure out what goes where or what an error message means if your book doesn't pass validation (and will help with validation itself so you don't run into that situation in the first place).
