Hmm. I don’t delete, but not because I want to but it’s more of a hassel than to just keep it lol…

In my room alone I have ~2 TB’s of disk space (laptop alone has 250 GB’s and it has a firewire 800 1TB disc connected that i use for time machine + video/media design).

The “House” server has ~1.2 TB’s. I’ve never been hard pressed for disk space, as “cheap” disk space seems to be pretty relative to how much I need. So each new PC has more, new external HD has more (I went from having a 160gb Drive to 2x500GB raid-0 external drive in ~2-3 years).

Now for rewatching, thats rare. I mostly have it in case a friend wants to watch it, and like i said, I have the space.

Most ironic, as anime shows have gotten bigger in the era of 720P my Design jobs have gotten smaller, as more and more is done in illustrator, resulting in ~1 mb file sizes, yet the same poster done in photoshop would have been a ~450mb file -_- . Ironic how time progresses.

Stream so I don’t have to go through the process of deleting. I can count the number of episodes that I would rewatch that I’ve seen in the last 3 years on one hand. Not even series. Episodes.

I don’t think I’ve had the urge to go back and rewatch an anime episode in years.

I used to have problems to storage the stuff i downloaded due to the lack of space in my hard disc (40 gb =\), so then i bought a dvd burner and put everything i downloaded on cd/dvds.

Then i didn’t have material space where to put all the dvds, so i just ended throwing away all the games and many anime i had, except the few i know i’ll play or watch again. Now i burn only the few stuff i really like, and for the music i have an ipod 80 gb =P

I was going to say I keep stuff until a series is over, at which time I’ll archive it to a DVDR, unless it’s H2O ~Footprints in the Sand which I ceremonially burned, but I got distracted by the Love Hina-hating.

I kind of tend to be in the middle. I keep stuff I know im going to re-watch on my HD (thank god for 1TB, but that’s getting full ^^;), the rest, if i know i wont touch it ever again, gets trashed. and the somewhat interesting stuff gets burned onto dvds and showed on the shelves.

the question is: blu-ray dvd writer or couple of extra HDs…. ^_^

I keep everything that I don’t think is shit. I have two 500GB and a 160GB externals. Of course, the problem is when one of the drives die (as one of my 500s did earlier this year) you lose a lot of shit and go through a lot of anguish.

I’m slowly rebuilding now though.

Well, unless I really, really liked it, I usually delete. Or if it has absolutely no chance of a license, and I just liked it, I’ll save it (so, shows like Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne, for instance).
