The aim of Spottarr is to provide a more modern application that aims for efficiency and more precise search results, while leaving the media management and browsing to the existing *Arrs.

For those who are unfamiliar with the Spotweb client for Spotnet:

Spotweb is a Spotnet implementation in PHP. Spotnet only shows actual Spots - spots are manually created by humans which categorize them and provide an image and description for the spot. You cannot compare Spotweb with for example Newznab or other such systems as its a moderated and curated system with manual intervention.

This makes Spotweb slightly slower for new content but should most likely raise the bar on quality - depending on the Spotters.

Spotarr is an alternative client.

What is a Spot?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

A spot includes a downloadable file and accompanying metadata and is intended to be shared with other users. A spot can be compared to a traditional search engine index entry. However, the difference is that it is user-generated and is intended to help people identify, organize, and share content.

The layman would think of it as a file. So music, movies, text, whatever.
