> Curious what others use to store media for home/remote use.

A limited selection of CD/DVD/BluRay, a large collection of songs in mp3 & other formats (many ripped from CD myself @ some point, others downloaded), a bunch of movies in h264/h265 etc (mostly via torrents).

Books / documentation / retrogames & more on various devices.

Generally when adding anything, I look for replay value. Play/watch/listen once & never revisit stuff I save to /dev/null.

In common between all the above: storage media under my control, and useable offline.
