Mine is 186GiB. I have about 100 movies and 3 TV series on a two hard disks (one for backup). I don’t know if that is small or large.

How big is your collection?

    I have about 24TB, lots of stuff backed up over many years, and not all of it pirated. In making backups over such a long period of time, I’ve actually managed to make redundant backups, so a recent project of mine is to just go to my NAS and organize, consolidate, and otherwise delete things I don’t actually wish to keep. I’ve saved a couple TBs and I hope to free up a few more TBs.

    I have an entire series of Breaking Bad and that alone is almost 100GB and 320GB+ of anime also another 200GB if you count games all store in an external 1TB hard drive and that’s puny compared to other people collection I saw online

    Around 16 TiB and I keep 3 copies of everything so 48 TiB used of around 65TiB. I encoded all my TV shows and most of my movies with AV1 and keep most of my files compressed, which saves a bunch of space so hopefully I won’t need more drives any time soon

    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.

    I do the same. I have 500GiB storage for my Pi4, which I use for torrenting and Kodi. I delete stuff if I watched it and it reaches 2:1 seed ratio, or after a couple of months. So in a way I don’t really have a collection.

    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…)

    Mostly games. Maybe 30 ish GB, probably an understatement but I don’t have that much storage

    download movie -> watch movie -> seed it for a while, at least some days -> delete

    I have like 10 movies saved for archival, because it was hard to find them
