- | ====== Sailing the High Seas ====== | ||
- | |||
- | This is not about piracy or about stealing other people intellectual property, please do not assume i condone these kinds of acts in any way, nor i do support people who steal in any way, even if we could debate a long time on the philosophical implications of today' | ||
- | |||
- | The core point is that accessing media, once i paid for it, should be a protected right and //just because// corporations //can and will// force you to pay again and again for the same stuff is un-ethical and should be prohibited by law. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Disclaimer ===== | ||
- | |||
- | So please do not take these pages as a push to download copyrighted material. All the software, steps and tools described in these page are lawful, at least in the place where i live and the page is hosted, but please take care to verify whether you are infringing your laws by following this page. Also, remember that there might be many ways for you to actually download copyrighted materials using these tools that it is still lawful in your country. For example, downloading stuff for which copyright has expired, or stuff for which you lawfully purchased copies. | ||
- | |||
- | Again, please check the law where you live as i am NOT responsible for anything that might happen to you, your family or your pets while going down this rabbit hole (joking of course, but i would say it's not unheard of SWAT teams going at private homes for nothing, so YMMV). | ||

- | ===== The Goal ===== | ||
- | To be able to manage a home media collection. Grow it, organize it and access it. You will be able to sort and organize your media collection, find missing items and add new items to it. You will also be able to access your media collection at very least from inside your home, but maybe also when you are not at home. As much securely as possible. | ||
- | |||
- | Organization of your media collection requires some tools and some effort. I will describe the tools, you will have to spend the time and effort to actually move and organize the files. This can be helped a bit with the tools themselves, but don't be fooled: keeping a well sorted house requires effort and mind to it, and this is up to you. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Approach ===== | ||
- | In order to be able to understand all this i expect you to do your own research and don't follow what's written here blindly. Everything written here is purely from my own home setup. It caters to my needs and to the peculiarities of my home network and requirements. The main scope of all this is to be able to reproduce a similar setup in the future if i will ever need to. | ||
- | |||
- | I have selected some specific tools and discard others. You might prefer the ones i discarded or find even better ones for your specific use case. Be this just a starting point. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Tools Overview ==== | ||
- | When we talk about digital media, we refer to many different things. This page will refer to the following main categories: movies, TV shows, music, and books/ | ||

- | The tools you will be using to this task are the ***Arr' | ||
- | |||
- | Many more tools will be used along the way, so... | ||
- | |||
- | All this will be automated as much as possible. | ||
