No, because it cost too much. With them putting out edition after edition. I torrent both of their stuff. No shame in my torrent game. And who really thinks that blu-rays and the Blu-ray player will exist in generations to come? Incase you haven’t noticed blu-ray player sales are a fraction of what they were 10, even 5 years ago. No one wants one. Thats why no one buys them. Only collectors have them in any meaningful numbers.

Why collect/horde the amounts of data we consume and not index it up? Getting it is the easy part. Getting it Indexed, Data’d, Tagged, etc. is the hard part. We live for this!

Build, lots cheaper. I did. Went to used pc store. Bought cheap case with a lot of HDD slots. Up to 14 of them with add-on hardware. HBA-LSi card. b550? board, i5-6 or 7 cpu, 16gb ram, 128 gb ssd for os, 256 gb ssd for cache for the hdd when I transfer in/out. I got exactly what I needed. And not a build predetermined and spec’d by someone else.
