Audiobookshelf is amazing and it solves so many problems! Really nice work! In case it matters, a Google search that led me to a Reddit post is how I found out about Audiobookshelf.

I would add the request to be able to either use the original folder names for the downloaded folders, or a custom naming scheme where you can add the sequence number to the downloaded folder name.

(This is also to support using the books in other apps on the phone)

As a new user I'm also in agreement about needing some flexibility in the downloaded file structure. As I use Smart Audio Player on android, my prefered format to keep things clean is either '[Author]/[Series]/[Book #] - [Title]' or just '[Author] - [Series]/[Book #] - [Title]'. If we could do some basic download structure building (Either a format string or blocks) or at least had a couple choices for greater compatibility that'd be great. It stripping the book number from the download causes me headaches when trying to download a whole series to go through especially.
