Type of Enhancement

Server Backend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

When matching a audiobook against audible, the information are pulled from audnex.us. In result, the authors asin is also provided. But the asin is not added to the author information itself.
This information should be added to the author if it does not exists.

Why would this be helpful?

This way, the search for author information is easy, since the asin is unique. There are several different ways to write the name including added information like '- translator'. In the future it might help with upcoming enhancements.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Since this will be in the backend, there will be no change in the frontend.
