well that grouping all came from here..
So.. a year and a month according to my registration date. Id guess between 5-10 gb a month for last 13 months. My bandwidth isnt metered though.. So as long as I dont piss off the people paying for the bandwidth by makign there connection slow.. no one cares.


And I know Im not the winner of the most movie related. Ill bet tomorow one of the guys will come forward with like 200 gbs or something beyond even how much hd space I own.. lol. I knew a guy in college that had a terrabyte of just videos and mp3s.. I decided to stay away from his server since I figured he was due for the visit from mr rhaa considering the type of mp3s he prefered.. Not sure if he got that one or not.

i have them in too many places for an accurate count... but i shall try

im not going to include anything ive burned to backup, and since deleted off the HDD.

58.9gb +48.8 gb=107.7gb of 90-95% auto related videos. not including hi-res photos, games etc.
so roughly a little over 1/3 of my total space is dominated by JW vids, and a few others

you messed with the wrong ppl
right now... I have 22 GB in my laptop, and had a cd-burn frenzy when I only had 500 MB of disk space of 55 GB

So... by then I had 40 GB of videos, movies, all of course is legal stuff and now moreless 80 cd's
Make some numbers

BUt you should check TT's cd collection (did a search, but didn't find it) and his gigantic HD.

I download from 30 to 50 GB every month 8 GB would be a lot for pictures, but for movies it is nothing LOL

I have around 50 GB in my PC atm + these CDRs:





As for Jabba, basically it's better to talk about TB instead of GB

I have well over 100 CD-Rs and about 5 DVD-Rs (only recently got my burner) with various music/vids on, and about 40gb at the moment unburned.

I also have 100GB of pics/movies/JW stuff on a fuked up HD, i'm trying to recover it, but it is a tricky task.... it will have to wait a few months before i can get down to business with it

As for BW - this month i am @ 40GB, but usually pull arounf that much in the whole month

8GB... i downloaded that this weekend
