Adding proper metadata to releases. Why are we still trying to decipher release titles, why not add a little metadata JSON file to every release and make the info available to the search API?

Also keeping multiple different versions of a release in Arr apps, like ebook and audiobook in different languages. Right now I'd need 4 Readarr instances to get the English and German audiobook and ebook versions of a book, and don't even think about letting them manage the same root folder!

Sorry, best we can do is some unrelated ASCII art.

At least they sometimes include insane rants.

I actually like the release titles. It's encoded in the name that way, there's a somewhat good standard for it, and it's one file. I rarely need more info than what's in the release title. And I would dislike having to carry a separate json with me.

A separate file or if the first few bytes of a file contained the metadata.

Readarr honestly feels like the most barebones of all the arrs. I tried it for a bit and decided to just use Calibre to manage my library.

Sure, I need to manually grab stuff but it more than makes up for that with the other features it has.
