I have this problem where I download too much stuff and never have enough time for it. Games, anime, manga, ebooks, you name it. There's like 200GB's worth of unperused content, taking up room on my hard-drive and gathering dust.

Obviously I can't be the only one who does this. How does /jp/ deal with its content overflow problems?

That's what Anon does. Why solve anything when he can just delay for a couple of months?

>200GB
cry me a river

I have literally dozens of not hundreds of terabytes of stuff I'll probably never read/watch/play again (or in some cases for the first time) on hard disk and DVD-R

You have nothing to worry about I assure you, when you get to my stage (I have RSS feeds for baka and tokyotosho that I don't use filters on, and two 100Mbit lines) you should worry.

I've used that nomenclature for years. The hard drive names go beyond trivial pet names, Quistis to me means porn, Moogle means unsorted fansubs and Eiko means 'stuff to bvrn' etc.

I thought I was pathetic when I bought a 500GB external solely to store eroge on. I guess my power level is still pathetic though.

Shift-delete solves most of my problems. If I find I haven't used something ever since downloading, I'll delete it and reDL when/if I feel like watching/playing/reading it.

DVDs are fucking cheap in latinoland, though. Roughly a dollar each here in Argentina.
I have some 200GB worth of eroge in DVDs, and it isn't like I just burn everything I download.

the cost isn't in the DVDs. It's in the wear and tear on the burner.

It's about 10-12$ for 25 DVDs (Traxdata Value Pack?) here but still i think it's a waste of money. I mean it's not like im going to watch my old anime again with all the new ones coming out same with games and about everything else. Maybe a few ones i will but i can just keep them on my HDDs.

Most cases should support 2 of these, if you remove your DVD drive. You can get 8 hdd's in there. Your only problem is your PSU
