How often do you consume the stuff you pirate? How do you avoid "hoarding"? (programming.dev)

Asking mostly because I have fuckloads of video courses, plus a number of movies, that I have yet to even check if the content is as good as their titles imply and I really feel like I'm mostly hoarding this stuff because I have no fucking clue.

Outside of a small handful, I don't rewatch movies and feel no drive to keep my own copies. I keep a "to watch" list in Letterbox'd and that is excessively long, but I rarely have more than a couple dozen movies downloaded from that list at any given time. That's how I do books too, long "to read" list but actually downloaded, not much.

Music is a different story. I can pull up the playlist for the first mixed CD I burned in middle school and everything since then. Also where I tend to focus my seeding efforts.

Kindred spirits! I log 'to check out' lists and call it a day
