      Hell no, My downloads folder in my media folder are completely different. I copy everything from downloads to media It gets renamed, possibly resampled. The torrents are left in the original folder to seed unmolested.

      Every once in a while I go through my torrent list and just tell the client to destroy the torrent and files for anything that I don’t care to seed anymore. Zero chance of it breaking my actual store.

      Hard links are a built-in feature of basically every modern filesystem. The bigger question to me is, why aren’t hard links working for you?
