Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

Nice try FBI 😎

55TB

3,500 movies, 28,000 TV show episodes, 120,000 audio tracks, and pretty much every single PlayStation/Sega/Nintendo game ever released.

About 14TB. Which reminds me, gonna need a new drive to drop in the NAS soon.

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

At least 0 bytes

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...)

Thats about a few days worth of downloads for me. Over 150tb raw 80 tb used

• About 1,400 movies: 6.7TB
• About 15,100 episodes: 10.9TB

Spread across a couple of NASes, each with 4 x 4TB drives in RAID5.

1,2Tb stored on M-Discs

Mostly GoPro videos , memes and books

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

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

7 TB in music, tv and movies
Dunno how much is what.
Recently uograded from a single 7TB HDD to a 4x16TB NAS in RaidZ2

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.

4451 movies

398 series / 36130 episodes

Taking up 25.48tb after conversion to HEVC compressing it ~40%

Every series is monitored for new episodes which download automatically; and there's a dozen or so public IMDB lists being monitored for new movies from studios/categories I like. Anything added to the lists gets downloaded automatically.

Then there's Ombi gathering media requests from my friends/family to be passed to sonarr/radarr and downloaded.

At this point, the library continuously grows on its own, and I have to do little more than just tell it what I want to watch.

With just shows in general, I have a fair amount. Don't know the exact amount of cartoons, but I got a 1TB external drive almost full of them, a single live actions show from the 90s, a single live action movie, a few animated films, and a whole comic set. As for games, I don't count by size, nor do I know how many since they're not stored on a drive. I specifically got a 2TB external drive (both drives Seagate) for if I ever find more shows/whatever I wanna collect, but I have yet to find something I desperately want.

That, and I still need to use it to back up files so I can switch operating systems on my desktop.

Edit:

No idea how much music I've downloaded from yt using things like NewPipe, but I got a good amount. I'd assume this counts as piracy too, since I'm certain the people in charge of the music industry don't like you being able to do that.

About 8GiB thumb drive. I don't hang on to much

Currently 40.2 TB, around 1800 movies, 430 TV shows and 4600 albums.

12TB or so

12tb on the fileserver (Enigma)

Big Finish and music live on my main rig.

I have no collection whatsoever. Everything that I watched gets deleted from the seedbox. A maximum of 900GB are stored on there at any given time. It’s cheap and no hassle to maintain.

40GiB of game ROMs of all sorts. A ton of snes/megadrive oldies, some PS1 stuff.

Now I want to expand to Wii and Gamecube...

Tree fiddy.

Much, much larger.

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

6 shows (131 episodes) at 240 GiB
2 movies at 80 GiB

Lmao.

Mine is small, since I have a shit ton of physical media going back into the eighties

So, only about 3 tb, most of which is music in lossless formats. But, I also purge video that I don't watch at least yearly, so it could be bigger.

128TiB, which is about 3k movies with I think 20+ shows. Some of the files are over 100GiB though.
