It's maybe a stupid question, but it seems that those tools are so well known a popular that their goal or use cases seem often overlooked to me.

All those tools looks powerful and everything, but are those any good for small people like me that just download their stuff by hand ? Just using a tool for renaming file to plex standard after that, and that's mostly it.

Would there be any benefits in using the -arrs if you don't have access to usenet ? (Also I know most advantages of usenet, but in practice is that that much better ?)
