I have all the nfo / fanarts / thumbs for all my movie files, but for all my TV shows I rely on all info from thetvdb. What happens if this website should shut down? Does anyone have a backup or do you download season thumbs, posters, fanart, episode thumbs. nfo files, etc from the site and store it all on your hard drives? I think it would be a PITA to constantly have to visit the site every time you download a new TV show. I'm pretty sure Media Companion can scrape and save all the info from the site. Anyway, opinions?

I use SickBeard to download most of my shows and it automates the NFO and TBN downloads.
I would recommend checking it out even if you do want to use it do download the shows.

I just setup my media server and when I need to name some TV Shows it goes down LOL. I thought there was an error with TV renamer and Ember revisted.
What the org poster was asking is a good question. If TVDB dies is there another site we can use to scape the information from for TV Shows?
Newbies etc and ever some people who are not new don't want to do this by hand it a pain in the butt. I don't mind renaming myself but to manual make a nfo , TBN files etc forget that crap.
