hi,
@gryff.
quite a huge task. although there is a shortcut which might work, depending on your os. In case of windows 7, what I often do is press applications key on the zip file, go to open with sub menu, there is an option windows explorer. once the zip is displayed with windows explorer (without actually extracting it), you can brows the names of the shows within the zip, close the newly opened window and just rename the zip and bingo. it will reduce the time taken to extract and delete the extracted zip, but still renaming them one by one isn't the most interesting activity out there also, if you decide to make the downloading through ftp, how would the logins be handled? as far as I can recall, some programmes like idm and other download managers may require you to enter the info each time and resuming is still an issue.
regards
