Duplicating library for "web site"

[bigbosst]

open audible is trying to create an entire second copy of my audio library to create a web page. It's copying all my ./books from a folder called books into ./web/m4b this doesn't make sense and is an obvious bug to try and duplicate my entire library. This is something new that was introduced and is happening in 3.9.6 after any audible library sync.

It would be really great that the web page would use the same files and not duplicate the books!

+1 on this feature

simple link "ls -s " to the files in the m4b folder to the web folder would do the trick for 99% of the dupe disk usage....

or just ls / mklink (windows) the whole folder

On Linux, Unix, and MacOS you create symbolic links, symlinks, with ln -s you could run into security errors or missing the actual data trying to serve links to files as a web page. But it should be ready to test.
