>>90973518Archive-fag here, it gives me a boner too. I actually started archiving shit and got about 80 shows because I knew I'd have to stop my internet bill for at least a few months to pay all my bills on time without loans or any shit, and then I realized how fucking convenient it is to just be able to watch anything you want in a few clicks once you have it. No ads, no loading webpages or tabs or anything else, no chance the audio/video/subs are shit (if you check quickly after each download), ect.
When my internet bill was something I could handle again, I just started fucking hoarding shows I used to like, I'd just think "hmm... I remember watching Alien 9 a long time ago, let's grab that one just in case" and ended up getting the folder I posted after a while.
Note that I DO delete stuff: Anything I watched and didn't like got deleted, outside of a few meme shows like School Days that I keep for shits and giggles. I've probably been through about 500 shows on my current computer, given I have maybe 300 and keep a little more than half what I try.
>>90973611>unlimited access whenever I want>once I have the files there's no real trace, the shit I downloaded a full decade ago is still in my folder and I can access it without the jews or government knowing I even have it anymore>quick access, if I want to watch an OP really quick I don't even need to wait for my browser to load up, let alone search for it on jewtube. Click the folder, click the file, it's playing instantly with my preferred subs already in preferences.>multiple channels, I can have meme subs on a show and still have 3 or 4 different real sub group's versions of a show. This is Particularly useful for shows like Pani Poni Dash, where I have dual audio and then 12 different sub files on it. All different combos of "dialogue", "signs", and most importantly for PPD, "trivia" and "joke explanations". Do I want the joke explanations on screen? I can toggle that shit at any time.
