Now you can find the same 4K video from few GBs to a hundred GBs, and I am wondering: where to stop? With music there is a similar phenomenon by which after a certain bitrate it becomes an esoteric art to detect improvements. So, what is your “very good enough” bitrate for 4K videos?

      In my very humble and personal opinion, theres a finite number of content I will be able to watch in my lifetime.

      Like many others I’m pretty sure, I have long gone past this limit, yet my personal collection of 50+mbps remuxes barely go over 6TB. This is hardly bank breaking

        How? I have mostly 1080 and 720 collection and have filled 10 TB. Free space is down to 500GB and am budgeting for more drives.

        Most aren’t even good rips just something I could find.

        Granted i haven’t more than 40% of it and is purgable if I end up needing space.
