Research direction

Start by reviewing SPTPersistentCache's documented cache behavior and APIs for storing downloaded pages. Determine whether it supports separate per-book folders, retaining data until a specific book is deleted, and unlimited disk usage; done would require a clear supported approach or a defined feature scope.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I have an app, that is a comic book reader, so the user can download a book then read it later, even without internet.

I'm thinking to cache all pages(images) of the book with SPTPersistentCache.
I need to save each book in a different folder, ex: spider man will be saved on a folder spider-man/pages, minions will be saved on minions/pages and so on...

Also SPTPersistentCache can't garbage the books downloaded, it must keep the cache until the user delete that specific book. Also no disk size limite.

What I need is the very same way Spotify does with offline musics downloaded. Can I do that?
