Seeing the *arr stack mentioned a handful of times, so this may be the best place to ask... Is the *arr stack primarily used for obtaining content that you haven't purchased? Or is there a way you can legally "buy" the content that you are downloading?
Can it be used for the dark gray area of "I have all this content on physical media, and I don't want to rip it myself", so I just hand it to the *arr stack, and it does the work?
Yeah ofc you can just rip the media you already own, e.g. Automatic Ripping Machine for physical disks. It's more involved than just drag and dropping files in, but it really is bulletproof once you've got it up and running.
And on "obtaining content you haven't purchased", that content is just another .mkv or .flac file. Doesn't make a difference to your media organizer.
