That actually wasn't my response.

That "cute" comment was you response?

I guess you are unfortunately stuck in your paradigm.

Which of course makes two of us. And, you probably won't believe this, but I don't think my paradigm is better than yours. But, it is better for me.

And please, don't try and say that you aren't claiming that your paradigm isn't better than everyone else's. Your comments, especially these two, demonstrate that you clearly think it is. Both are clearly intended as an insult as are several of your other comments in this thread.

All I have to do is run two commands, depending on what I am doing:

ebook-reader-prep.sh

and

ebook-organize.sh

It's not much work at all, I just like to monitor the output when I am at work.

So, what you are saying is that your scripts are perfect? Every time you add a new book, they get exactly the right metadata and apply them. You don't examine the metadata at all, you don't look at the book at all to see if it actually fits? If so, then I'm amazed and not surprised that you can do it this way. And barely believe it. Based on the metadata sources I've seen, I wouldn't trust them without interaction.

But, I'm not just talking about the original organisation. What I said is also about the much more important question: What I am going to read now. And the only slightly less important: What books do I need to find. For those questions, I need more information than just the title of the book or things I can see in a simple file listing. Unless maybe the file name was a few thousand characters long.
