With the backlog of movies, TV shows, books, video games, and so on you have downloaded how long do you think you could stay entertained without internet access?

Let's say if there was another quarantine and you were stuck at home.

This is mostly targeted at people who consider themselves data hoarders.

we have 10-15TB of movies, TV and music laying around.

Is your collection pretty high res? I've got a decent collection but try to keep to 480p so I can have more shows and games on standby

I'm not so picky - my movies are generally 720p or 1080p (I use 1080p x265 for things I rip myself), and my music is a combination of (mostly 320kbps) MP3 and FLAC.

I ended up building a new NAS (35TB current, 100TB eventual capacity) to replace my old 12TB unit, specifically because I wanted to start grabbing more 7th gen console stuff, and to start ripping/downloading more movies (specifically because streaming services are becoming a clusterfuck, where you never know which service - if any - will have the movies or shows you want on any given day).
