managing multiple scrapers

I use the simple file structure at the moment

Code:
TV Shows                  <<Source folder, Content: TV shows>>
   |----TV Show 1
   |       |----Season #
   |            |--Files
   |----TV Show 2 (year)
   |       |--Files
   |----TV Show 3
   |       |----2008
   |            |--Files

I have to use multiple scrapers, since not all TV shows are available/complete in a single database. For each scraper I have to define a directory path. It can either be the directory of multiple TV shows or of a single TV show. If I choose "TV Shows" (path in simple file structure) for each scraper, they come into conflict with each other. Configuring the scraper for each TV show directory ("TV Show 1", "TV Show 2 (year)", "TV Show 3", etc. in simple file structure) in the UI on my TV is cumbersome. I could create a root directory for each scraper (configuration)

Code:
TV Shows
   |----thetvdb                  <<Source folder, Content: TV shows, Scraper: thetvdb.com - default settings>>
       |----TV Show 1
       |       |----Season #
       |            |--Files
       |----TV Show 2 (year)
       |       |--Files
   |----thetvdb 2                <<Source folder, Content: TV shows, Scraper: thetvdb.com - custom settings>>
       |----TV Show 3
       ...
   |----themoviedb               <<Source folder, Content: TV shows, Scraper: themoviedb.org - default settings>>
       |----TV Show 4
       ...

but I don't feel confident of that approach. How do you manage multiple scrapers?
