I did this for a couple of years and it became such a major hassle I just closed my server and told everyone to go get their own subscriptions. 30 terra-bytes of data deleted!!

Ouch that's brutal. You must have spent so much money on running all that and so much time collecting all that media.

It's not that hard honestly. I only have one TB though but it really isn't that much of a hassle.
