I seek the wisdom of the wise monks,

I want to make a Perl CMD program that would rename subtitle files, currently downloaded in the series season directory, to their corresponding episodes' .avi files, so that users would have to no longer manually rename all subtitle files as their .avi counterparts in order the subtitles to be displayed automatically by the majority of Movie Players.

My question is, is it totally legal ? In a sense that, for example, sometimes when I buy series I download for them from the web Bulgarian subtitles that are not included in the subtitles' folder of the series, but in order for them to play automatically in my player, I would have to rename them to be the same name as the .avi parts.

Many thanks
