I can confirm I had the bright idea to automate audiobooks… Only to quickly realize I suddenly had the problem of how the hell do I organize it, find whats next or make sure I get what I want.

Ended just making a janky little site that’s basically a knock off audible suggestion engine.

Then rigged it up to the automation. Can put things on the list it searches once a day for anything on the list and downloads it if I don’t have it.

It even checks the cover art, tags, and what not to make sure it’s all accurate then slaps it in and sends me a nifty little notice when it’s done!

I’m working to do the same thing with music next.

Shotgun automation is not the way. Curated automatic is!
