Description

I love that Koel offers the ability to zip & directly download an album / items you are listening to. However, it only downloads the song files in the release's directory; an example is below for The Midnight - Syndicate, downloaded from my Koel instance, which preferably, would include a cover.png file and a PDF book about the release as they are in the album's directory on the server where my music is.

When organizing and adding music to my library I tend to include images from the CD booklet, secure rip logs, and if available, official PDFs about the album in the folder where the files are stored. When listening to albums I like to spend time looking at the CD art and reading any information that comes with the album.

I've been tempted to play with a few of the files such as DownloadService.php and DownloadAlbumController.php to see if I could get the function to download the entire directory the Album/Release files are in but even if I got this working, I can't reasonably expect it to be persistent after updates, or remain stable.

It would be nice if it would include all of the files inside the release's directory if possible.

This would make more sense in the Media Browser.
