Archivists are completists by their very nature. And as I've demonstrated, storage space is a non-issue even for maniacs like myself.

Buy me a 2TB drive then please since you are overflowing with cash. :tramp:

What the hell are you going to do with only 2TB?

All I have is a 1TB hard drive and a 2TB external and that does me just fine.

2TB should last me ages since I stream most of my music anyways.

*scoffs* It would compromise my strict moral code to support the media consumption of a man who doesn't have the decency to steal.

I used to store stuff on my hard drive, but now there's no need for it. Though I do like to have some stuff on my hard drive for those stormy days when internet connection goes out. Then I have something to get me by till the internet connection comes back.

OK, I should start another survey and ask
"What Kind Of Commercials Do You Enjoy Listening To?"

In the 50's, a T.V. Show would be 25 minutes with 5 minutes of commercials. Then in the next 10 to 20 years, that stretched to 10 minutes of commercials which shortened the T.V. Shows to only 20 minutes. By the 80's, T.V. Shows had become only 15 minutes with 15 minutes of commercials. Now, some T.V. Shows are only 10 minutes with 20 minutes of commercials!

This is the same for AM/FM Radio as well. If you listen to 5 minutes of music, you are also going to be listening to 5 minutes of commercials.

Who has went to a dance club or a music concert, and in the middle of the music, the music stops to play commercials? Have you ever been dancing to music at a club on a dance floor, and then all of a sudden the music stops to tell you about a car sale, then how you can save on home heating costs, and then about a weekend sale at a store that is happening soon, and then about a politician that needs your vote?

How many of the commercials repeat and how often? Do you seriously enjoy listening to the same commercials over and over and over like a psychotic person that has already had a mental break and enjoys the brainwashing?

Spotify is crap, and eventually, everyone will see it for what it really is. It is just another Pandora Radio and iHeart Radio. People only go to it now, because it is the most advertised, but as with anything that is over advertised, it is the worst and uses brainwashing to make itself popular.

Since, I watch a crapload of TV i will comment on this section. I dvr everything so that I can just skip through the commercials. Shows are nowhere near 10 mins of show and 20 mins of commercials. It might not be exactly 25 mins of show and 5 mins of commercials but it's more around the 23 mark and 7 mins of commercials.
