Awesome!  I have a friend that has the same, except it is music CDs/albums/etc.  He has more CDs/albums than anyone I have ever seen in my life.

I have 90+TB of collections of vintage shows, all complete.  I used to have CDs/DVDs, etc, but threw all of them away in favor of going all digital on hard drives.  I converted all the rare stuff before tossing the media.

I will say that I have become a bit of a hoarding snob on the shows these days.  I have been re-freshing all my content with the highest resolution available. Anything new, is 4k if it is available.  

So I have become a bitrate snob.
