Do you store all your media? And how?
For a piracy-oriented community I'm surprised this isn't discussed as much.
Do you ever store media, or delete them after watching? How do you store them?
I personally have 12TB worth of hard drives (3x4TB) in a JBOD configuration. Been wanting to upgrade my hard drives (they're 6 years old) but I'm still a little skeptical of the helium drives and whether they will last...

I don’t have tons of digital media so it’s stored on 2 4TB portable HDD’s.
I only regularly download and keep things that either aren’t available on streaming or are removed from streaming services.
But since the writers strikes I download most things I want to watch as the streamers aren’t getting any more of my money until they pay writers what they’re worth.
This is not to be taken as offensive just curious.
how does the writer strike change anything? youre still pirating are you not regardless?! I’m confused on how your ethics/ morals applied when they weren’t on strike.
Until the strike I was subscribed to Apple TV, Paramount+, Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime so I don’t pirate unless what I want isn’t available on physical disc or streaming.
If a streaming service removes original content because they don’t want to pay residuals I’ll torrent it.
Likewise anything new that comes out during the strike I’ll torrent. Once they start paying the writers fairly and guarantee protections agains AI for writers and actors I’ll be more than happy to start giving them my money again. But as things stand the studios pocket 99% of the money hence the strikes.
