I will never ever start with the sekrit club bullshit. I will not register. I will not beg for access. I will not be waiting when registrations are open. I will not seed the way you want me to seed. I will download what I want, when I want, how I want and no one will tell me what I can or can't do. Not ISP, not the content owner, not the government and least of all not some power tripping assholes running some shitty tracker or website that expect me to do this and that. I will always use the site that just let's me click the magnet link button and download my slop and add expect nothing in return. I will rather pay for the content than start to play by your bullshit rules. Fuck you.

Dumb question, I'll ask it anyway: Can I use my seedbox (ultra) to download links on the internet? There's this Google spreadsheet with a ton of rockband 3 songs I want incase it ever goes down. I figure I should be able to but idk if I need to use FTP or some shit.

depends on what you're scanning them with. if you're scanning a 300 page book using a phone it will take several hours. if you're using a flatbed scanner it'll take maybe an hour. however if you're not taking the books apart with either method, you're going to get a decent amount of text distortion towards the spine so you'll spend a lot of time cleaning up the scan like fixing up cropping, text and warping issues. the quality will be questionable either way, particuarly if the book is older. but it's still better than nothing. if you buy a decent book scanner like $500 it could be as fast as 10 minutes if you're good at using it. you'll also get much less distortion as it uses an overhead scanner and even has weights to hold the pages down; the software will also straighten, autocrop and order the pages on the fly. however, you'll still have to turn the pages by hand. the ones that autoturn the pages cost tens of thousands of dollars but it'll scan the book in a couple of minutes.
>>102219195
there's still a lot of wanted books that need to be scanned. BiB has much better threads than MaM when it comes to optimizing scans

because I don't want to damage the book. but yeah, if you dgaf and you don't have any edge-to-edge illustrations, then you can just cut off the spine and feed it to a scanner. make sure to make a clean cut so that your feed scanner doesn't choke (doesn't work for old, damaged books)

You mentioned the wrong post, but i happen to be interested in book scanning since i own a ton of print only books. I own a decent quality camera phone, Google Pixel, and am willing to spend my time in a library if a scanner is needed. What's the best budget scanning technology out there? My knowledge is heavily outdated and the only thing i know of is xSane. TL;DR what route should i go?
