Been using traditional methods to get my isos and store them locally, and on arrs/Plex for well over a decade.
Honestly the debris stuff never ever interested me, unless the data is in your control locally the rug pull is always on the horizon.
I do wish we could make it easier for non-technical folk, not everyone is wrong in the head like I am to be happy enough building and maintaining a NAS and the software stack required.
Unfortunately not everyone has access to cheap storage so for us a few bucks a month is more cost effective than having to upgrade expensive storage regularly. 😓
Upgrading? Regularly? stares at 25x2TB ancient array
Still more up front than a few dollars.
True. But you can save photos and videos under self-healing filesystem like zfs. Is far more cheaper than a year of multiple premium subscriptions (google, netflix, spotify). And it's not recurring monthly other than electricity bill..
Self-healing?
