I'm glad I doubled down in investing in my arrstack setup a few years ago. I find the more friends I share it with, the less storage is needed for each additional friend since they mostly watch stuff already requested by my other friends.

Yeah, shit like this is what it takes for me to work on my arrstack setup. Need to get back on it now.

It was worth it. Finally cut the cord and got 6 12tb hdds. In raid 6 with zfs. Working so great.

Just make sure you setup zfs to do monthly scans and email you for issues. One of my drives kept throwing errors and had to RMA it.

I cancelled all my streaming services. Between Tubi, the library, and the occasional torrent I’m covered thanks.

Crack down all you want. I haven’t been subscribed since Last Of Us season 1 ended. The more you jack up the prices and other shit like this, the less likely I am to subscribe.

People are still unwilling to just go without Big Media and boycott it entirely. Until they do, they will keep abusing their clients.
