Why are multiple copies of box art being made?

So I found my images folder is ballooning in size.   I checked and found I have the same image twice or more.  I should only have IMAGE-01.jpg but have that plus IMAGE-02.jpg  etc.   They are exactly the same picture.  Why is LB filling my HDD up with redundant files?  How can I stop it?

If you are sourcing images from both EmuMovies and LB then it will get redundant images. Since LB allows for multiple cover images in order to cover multiple regions it unfortunately allows for duplicate files also as it has no way of knowing if the images are the same unless they are the same exact file down to the hash check.
