I am not the OP ... just saying that the OP's request is something that I have often wished for also... ie. the option to shift folder containers using MM, as well as facility to shift just files that were in containers

Why don't you simply use MM to rip the CD directly to your NAS and thus creating the folder structure for you using the target mask?
I have been using dBpoweramp long before MM. It is a excellent tool that specialises on just that function. I would shift if it wasn't meeting my needs. I have had no reason, so far, to trial MM for that purpose. ... I suspect dBpoweramp has superior functionality, but to be fair I don't know. Maybe I will look at it.

Why don't you use auto-organize feature that automatically creates the folders based on the mask?
That's for en-masse reconstructions isn't it? I have never used it. ... it is useful for drag and drop a couple of albums?

With respect to you, in the other thread you wrote "MM5 UI is already complex enough", so are these your suggestions going to make MM5 UI even more complex??
Have you had your morning coffee yet? ... Chill
I am just agreeing that a facility to move folders, additional to the facility to move files, would be useful to me also.
You are quoting out of context ... I didn't suggest that MM has too much functionality ... just that where the UI refers to a single thing, by multiple different names, this needlessly makes MM more complex. ... ie what i said was
"MM5 UI is already complex enough ... don't make it more complex by referring to the same thing, using different names"
Why the rip location should be in options? The last rip location is restored whenever the Rip CD dialog is opened again -- so simply the lastly configured rip location is preserved (just like it would be configured in options)
Well, most everything else is in there.
It doesn't
need to be there ... I have no opinion on that. I was just trying to explain to the OP that there is a difficulty delivering what is being asked for.
ie. one user may store music in /AlbumArtist/Album ... and another may just have /Genre/Album folders ... etc
So since you didn't have a central specification for the user's folder scheme, you won't know which folder(s) needed to moved|created.
I wasn't intending to imply criticism. ... Sorry if was unclear.
[UPDATE] Further apologies to Ludek and the OP for creating confusion in this thread. I was over-thinking the OP's request. ... There is no need to have access to the User's folder scheme, to achieve what the OP was asking for. ... I still think that the OP's suggestion would be useful addition to MM at some stage.
