You are allowing habits from the time of very constrained storage to limit your use of your computer. This is not ideal.
This. I was just like you and Ashjuk. I had my directory tree and liked it that way (I remember 10MB HDs as well). Then one day (6 years ago) I took the plunge and never looked back.

Ashjuk, give Calibre a serious chance, and forget that directory tree that is the Calibre library. You won't be sorry.
