As a guestimate, the OT.com SW community & other SW preservationists have produced maybe 300-400 dvds.
Let's say they average 4.0 gb. that's 1.6 tb. A GMail acount is 7 gb. A 500 gb HD can be bought for $100.
Watch time is the conflict. We need better video search implementation.
and for your display problem, keep the media on HDs and get one of those digital picture frames and have it rotate through your cover art collection.
