Mine is 186GiB. I have about 100 movies and 3 TV series on a two hard disks (one for backup). I don’t know if that is small or large.

How big is your collection?

    It’s pretty tiny, but as long as you’re happy that’s the main thing. My colleague at work is a sysadmin by thread so built a server with all the bells and whistles, then put it online and opened it to some friends and family. I forget the size but we’re talking somewhere near 100 Tb easy. I find it a bit excessive, if you ask me :P

    Big, but orders of magnitude smaller than what all the Steam games I’ve bought at sales and never found the time to play would need if I installed them all at the same time.

    “Piracy” really is a service problem.

    (Fuck, I’ve got Amazon Prime for the free deliveries — it comes bundled around these parts and is surprisingly cheap — and I still torrent Amazon series because it’s more convenient and gives me better quality…)

        Nowadays thats less than 10 drives. I literally just ordered 10 20 tb drives to fill my second nas.

        I have two synolygy 1019+ with ds 517 expansion units. That 10 drives for each set. Technically i could set that up to have about 400 tb usable.

        I buy factory recertified drives for about 200 ea. with a couple spares.yea its a chunk of change but not too crazy.

        I have multiple friends with more than a pb.

    These are some low bitrate movies. Mine is probably at least 10x that size but nowhere close 10x the content.

    Just to be clear: if Netflix would have high quality versions of ALL movies and series and now the bullshit it’s turning into, I would never Pirate. Too much trouble, too much work, too expensive. Netflix would be could be easy but instead it’s getting shittier by the minute.

    Don’t get me started on Amazon or disney

    Over 2500 movies and over 200 series. There is a lot of todo maintenance (adding subtitles, converting some movies that are still in blueray or dvd iso) and in total some 100TB. A lot of it is lower quality, working on improving that

    Edit: it’s a huge amount of work and money and I’m only doing it as a sort of hobby since netix turned to shit. Give me one provider that can show me everything from every country, whenever I want, on whatever devit I want, no gro blocking, no ad bullshit, and I’d happily pay twice, three times the amount I do now. But here we are, and here is my collection because half the shit I have can’t be watched anywhere else. Fuck the enshitification

    42TiB (I managed to get about 5TiB back by defining remux to be lower quality as “normal” releases in the arr* apps 😎) Now I can finally add more media

    765 movies (~4.5 TB)

    161 tv series (~7.2 TB)

    About a year ago 6TB storage was no longer cutting it since I was constantly having to hunt for media to delete or downgrade quality in order to make more room. I bought five 14TB drives and put them in a big zfs pool so I don’t have to do that anymore.

      it is not too much. do you have some nostalgia about these times or prefer some old consoles rather than the newer ones?

        I think old school gaming in general was simpler and more enjoyable/to the point. I have most nostalgia for PS1 stuff, but I really like a bit of everything
