Another vote for CWA. It's been a year and I can fully remember my reasons for not going with something else, but I tried several and nothing was quite as complete for what I needed.
I also don't want or need much for automation. I want to curate my library, there are few authors I'd want to monitor and grab everything from. Then from a metadata front, CWA lets me easily search for and cherry pick bits of metadata.
