how much backing up would you do of a media server? (aussie.zone)

I have a nas with 2x10tb drives. I mostly just have music, movies and tv shows on it.

People talk about raid not being a backup, but is that relevant for non-original data? I mean I can always get the media again if need be. It would just be an inconvenience.

What would you do?

Streaming services let you just mark playlists for offline use, I have my whole spotify library offline.

Most streaming services have that under a paywall, which in that case I will much rather just make my own if I have a system to do it.
