Back in the day I recall finding lots of well curated and conveniently packaged ebook collections. Things like Goodreads choice 20XX, top 100 sci-fi of all time, etc. These days I know plenty of places generously providing individual books, but not where to find these nice collections. The ability to browse popular releases would also be nice. Ideally I would avoid needing to setup specialized tools, like readarr. But if something like its list feature simply blows away any other options I’d consider it; whatever gets the best results in the least time.

    Isn’t MAM specifically purging their collections soon? I just thought it was funny that you used MAM as the example, because they’re planning on removing their collections.

        Sure, but OP was asking for curated collections, and the above commenter pointed at MAM as an example. And MAM is specifically purging their curated collections, so I thought it was funny that MAM was the go-to response.

      Really? Hadn’t read about it. Well I guess that’ll be a no go for collections when they do it
