I feel like lately I’ve been doing more piracy than actually using the content I’ve been pirating. Curating a library has been so enjoyable lately, I’m not the only one right?

I feel the same way about music, which is why I am an obsessive buyer of physical music.

This. I love just raiding local libraries for disks, checking them all out, and archiving. Only have a few tens of gigabytes rn (I'm a newbie), and only a few gigs of "downloaded for free" music, but I'm enjoying both the media and the process. Mostly just YouTube-music scraping with ytmp3, but looking to get more serious soon.

Link rot on YouTube is insane. I have been scraping old demos in case the accounts get reported or zapped for impolitic speech.
