„they” could have “solved” the necessity for owning a pirate hat. but they fucked up too many times.
even if you’re ok with just streaming and owning nothing for your money… you need like 6 subscriptions to listen and watch the stuff you want. I’m not willing nor able to spend hundreds for nothing. I used that money to purchase a large hard drive and some cool tshirts from my favorite bands.
greed is an ugly removed and I am wearing yet again my trusty old pirate hat.
Got tired of trying to figure out what service to watch a show on this week. Back to sailing the 7 seas…
That’s what justwatch.com is for
Gave up on Netflix a good 10 years ago when they first started quiet rumours about stopping people from accessing other countries catalogues. Immediately spun up an install of Plex and today am sitting on 30+TB of everything-I-ever-wanna-have and won’t be going back. Only access to any paid streaming service I have is D+ via a friends account, and I’ve used it 4x in 2 years lol.
What level of quality do you store your content at? 1080p? 4K?
I want to build my own catalog of Movies also, but I’m afraid of not getting enough Storage for 4K because it costs so much. I mean, sure, I can get 4TB HDDs for 59.99, but how much 4K Content is that?
I’d guesstimate something like 100 movies. 4k Movies can be massive depending on the bitrate, HDR, etc…
My smaller 4k files are ~20GB and my biggest ones are 87GB(3 hour movie, high bitrate)…
Seems that “typical” is closer to 40… so 100 movies is probably about right.
100 movies per 4TB? If that’s true, that’s pretty reasonable! Id probably get 4 drives and do 3+1 Parity
That’s my guess… I have majority 1080p content, with a sprinkling of 4k stuff. I’m at 27TB for 6062 movies. 160 of which are 4k at varying bitrates.
I store almost everything but my few favorite movies in 1080p. but I also let friends request content and I have automatic lists setup to add new stuff as it comes out so I try not to keep 4k, plus watching 4k outside of the house can be stressful on the server so 1080p is good for me, I have about 60tb of 1080p shows movies and youtube series
