Enquiry: why are audiobooks sorted by author but literature uses more complex sorting systems? Will "literature" break apart books by the same author?

Hi, no complaints from me so far. But don't know how to proceed.

The audio/books folder indicates that content should be sorted by author. As somebody with not many audiobooks that seems to work for now.

The literature section is a bit intimidating, I'm still comparing them, but they're essentially library systems. So if an author writes books in different subject fields, that would separate their work in different categories. The same author might be located in Politics as well as History. Unlike audiobooks, where Lastname, Firstname will contain all their books.

My problem is I may have all an author's books in a collection and don't want to break that apart.

Hey @93-infinity, thanks for reaching out. The Book section(s) where mainly provided by the community and nothing in here is really "final". Also nobody forces you to adhere to this structure, that's also why there is always more than one solution. I think I mentioned that in one of the main README sections. The LCC system for example is meant for really large book collections. IMO you can just dump it all into one folder and be done with it, until your collection requires this kind of sorting. I can't really predict how the final sorting will look like for audiobooks. I might just use the same structure as for music content. Your structure sounds perfectly fine so far.. I don't think of audiobooks the same as books. A todo I take from this is that I should refine the audiobook section a bit. I have not touched that one at all I think.
