Don't mean to hijack this thread, but wondering if anyone has suggestions on how to organize periodicals? I just got a bulk of magazine issues from a recent humble bundle, and the filenames are all over the place (some are month/year, some are issue number). I'm gonna have to rely on metadata to make them remotely navigable. However, AFAIK there are not many metadata scrapers for magazines, so I'm probably going to have to wing it.

I'm curious how other people do it. I'm not sure if e.g. I should use the Month/Year as the title and put the issue number as the series number, or put the issue number as the title and put the month/year as the publish date.

EDIT: Goes without saying I'm asking with Calibre in mind as my library tool.
