    Ya know what'd be awesome... Being able to buy a movie, at a reasonable price, and instead of ripping, I just download a .mp4 or .mkv with subtitles and open it in whatever player I feel like without some weird DRM keys. That'd be fucking nice.

    🤡 "But they'd go out of business with all the piracy!!!"

    This is literally how RiffTrax sells their video content and they are very much not out of business.

      @datenwolf My 4U is configured with like 96TBs of storage. Even with all 24 drives removed, and the power supplies removed, this took 2 people to get it down the stairs. I'm not sure how to deal with this if I ever have to move out. This place is under capitalism... I'm sure I'll eventually have to move out, if I don't die from the fascism first.

      Indeed.

      If I could buy movies and download them as I do on Bandcamp I'd have to invest in so much storage.

      On that note, I recently came across the whole collection of the old planet of the apes movies on 4k Blu-ray for 2 bucks. Instant buy.

      @datenwolf My 4U in default settings is VERY VERY power hungry. But, with some careful configuring, I got it down to about a couple of lightbulbs, unless it's doing some heavy transcoding. The trade off is, if nobody has been watching anything from a particular array for a couple hours, the first video played takes almost a half minute to actually start. I'm fine with that.

      @hellomiakoda

      I can relate: In 2010 I got the old storage system from my alma mater university physics department student computer pool for free. One 4U disk shelf unit and two 2U servers with multipath SCSI controllers.

      I scraped it 6 years later, because boy was this thing loud and heavy and power hungry.
