Thanks for creating this thread! I was struggling with exactly the same thing!

Oh no, apologies, I didn't mean to cause emotional damage! I realized way too late that the thread was discussing streaming while I was going off in download for archiving, so I deleted the whole thing. I'm confused how it still ended up on your screen!
Anyhow, i guess it depends on your system, but.. you might have a point, I might be picky. It just sounds so obvious to me, but that's my ears and doesn't mean anything about your ears. You do you, man 😅
You make a great point! From the standpoint of archival, that system makes a lot more sense.
I didn't know about Anna's torrents and got super excited, then looked it up and got really confused. How am I supposed to know which of these torrents hold which books?! There's probably a guide or search I didn't find, but I'm genuinely unsure how to use these thousands of torrent files.
I mean, given the mission to preserve a large amount of humanity's knowledge, that's bound to be a complex system, so I'm definitely not surprised it isn't immediately straightforward. A guide would definitely be useful, though.
Incidentally, so can the regular Firefox these days!
I'm super old school and just started finding my way back to torrenting. Would you have a recommendation on how to read up on these arrs? So far I still manually pull my torrents from a search engine and run it through my vpn hardened Pi in the cellar. It works, but I do wonder if there's a more streamlined approach.
