What workflows do y'all have for sourcing > archiving media? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'm curious how you have automated/optimized your workflows for downloading, saving, archiving media.

For instance:

On my laptop I download an epub into a folder that Calibre watches.
Calibre copies and imports that epub into the Calibre library and removes the old epub.
Calibre Library is hooked up to SyncThing, which passes the epub to my eReader.

My workflow is probably not the most efficient, but I'm hoping I can be inspired by people's approaches.

Download thing, open thing in vlc or music bee. People make complicated systems to automate this stuff but I don’t consume enough new media to make doing all of that worth it. Neither do I need my media remotely accessible, if I’m out doing something then I am busy and don’t need to be watching a movie or whatever. If I know the boredom situation is dire then I will bring my psp or a book with me. I’d rather consume media in my sort of nice audio and game setups than anywhere else anyways.

Music bee is like itunes from 10 years ago but without drm. I leave qbit and soulseek open cos sharing is caring
