Too much anime to download
Zalis116:
See, that's the advantage of being an SDfag -- smaller, good-quality encodes (like this one) + relatively cheap hard drives = lots of anime stored. I keep pretty much everything I download, except (R1) DVD-rips of shows I own on DVD. I will keep fansubs if I get the DVDs, for the different translations and historical value. While I do rewatch a lot of things, I don't rewatch that many downloaded files. Mainly it's shows I've first seen downloaded then bought on DVD, or else DVDs of shows I originally saw on DVD from blind buys. On some rare occasions I've rewatched downloaded files, or gone back and watched fansubs for shows I first saw on DVD.
No, the main reason I keep so much is to reseed and reshare, not so much for my own rewatching.
EDIT: I'm not seeing that many large torrents on BBT. Only 7 30GB+, and 17 from 20-30GB.

+1 "Because I can" got 1,3TB of anime atm :)
But I guess it started back the in the DC++ era for me, since the more I had to share the better access I got with others who shared :D.
I'll probably just keep on adding HDDs, I used to burn DVDs back when I didn't have enough cash for HDDs. But I've moved all those DVDs back onto my HDDs.
I tend to share around me and I re-watch a lot as well.
I have once in a while deleted something I think was totally not worth it. Happens rarely since I feel bad about the DL bandwidth I used on getting it :p
Crazy ain't we all ::)
Mcgreag:
5 TB and counting :)
I keep more or less everything (1 copy of each show) mainly because I enjoy collecting. I also act as the supplier for our anime club, lots of people there those taste are very different from mine.
isukianime:
I'll have to buy a HDD within the next month or two. I've already filled up 1TB of the 1.5TB HDD I bought two months ago
vuzedome:
Installed new HDD, added 1TB into existing storage space.
Now where's the start button in utorrent?
