Softcopy Librarian is pretty damn easy. 
While I prefer Bookmanager to PDF for navigation and search, I can live with 
PDF.
But, I really don't like the idea of building my own shelves and I certainly am 
not interested in significantly increasing my time to download individual 
products.

A nice thing about Softcopy Librarian is that I can get it started on a new 
collection when I leave for the day and it runs overnight downloading 
everything.
