How much porn is too much porn? (size of one's collection)

[Blue126]

I am currently going over 16 tb of porn on a lot of hard drives.
What I have found is astonishing, I have mostly the same files or different versions of the same films at different file sizes.
I will probably end up with a lot of empty hard drives..but if I find anything not posted then I will upload.
I am sure glad I don't save to Disc's anymore.

With that much, you could set up a RAID server and start your own porn site.

I wonder if any of our members here have come up with a really good way to index a collection so you can find what you have, or think you have.

I have a 1TB drive for pictures and a 2TB drive for video. Both are currently mostly full. On the 1TB drive I sort the pics into two sub directories labeled BDSM and Pics (for all non BDSM content). I sort those sub directories by the model's name. I sometimes break the model directories up into smaller sub directories alphabetically to aid in searching. I rename all of my picture sets to something that makes sense to me. I have a pretty good recollection of what I have and don't download things I have seen before.

The video drive is mostly all BDSM stuff. Vanilla porn videos have never interested me. I sort the video drive into sub directories by the name of the company who produced the content.

My system works pretty well. I can find most of what I am looking for in a minute or two.

I have kind of the same thing, but with hundreds of models, I sometimes get the itch to look at a particular girl, and while I have her picture in my mind's eye, I can't remember her name. I have a good up-to-date picture thumbnails database I can look though, but even then going through all of the pics I sometimes miss the one I am looking for.

I almost need a relational database where I can sort models by race, hair color, breast size, etc.

Plus I have other miscellaneous folders that are a completely disorganized mess.

I went through some porn the other day in my usual clean up phase. I deleted lots of stuff that was years old because on anything other than a 14" screen it looks horrible. The video sizes were double digit MB's and even back then was not the greatest quality. I think as time goes by it will be harder to delete stuff as quality these days is pretty much future proof unless I buy a big ass projector to watch stuff on.

Usenet and web sites like VEF, Imagefap and Viper Girls make collecting porn a very quick and efficient process.

I think using porn is a good pastime and I like men enjoying it and using it for wanking. I think collecting it is a good thing for men to do. I don't think it should take over a man's life. But I do think that if you take time doing something and learn more about it and you would get more out of it. So I think men who get to know different sorts of porn and different girls doing porn and use places like this forum to get to know different ideas about it would get a lot more enjoyment than a man who sort of just looks up something and wanks over it for 15 minutes and then forgets it.

Also I like the idea that a man could collect porn and then could go back and enjoy seeing girls bodies that he enjoyed wanking to maybe like 40 or 50 years ago.

I like this forum because the men here seem friendly but also because they are interested in older vintage porn as well as todays porn. I think it is nice that say you could be 60 years old now but men could still be enjoying seeing your body in photos taken 40 years ago.

I enjoy sorting my images and video into files and looking back how the content of each has developed.

How have they developed? Can you think of anything you see?

While we are challenged to expand capacity in the very near term and supply appropriate backup soon after that, we believe we have one of the strongest asset portfolios in digital pornography available.

Here are the highlights from our audit, completed per the custom on Valentine's Day.

(Lucy L'Vette/Digital Desire]

• Images: 5,840,202 (3.03 TB)
• Videos: 22,215 (4.99 TB)
• Total: 8.02 TB

(Wow! That’s a lot of porn! / Samantha Boik, Denver Broncos Cheerleaders)

• Average images downloaded per day: 3,255 (1.69 GB)
• Average image size: 519 KB

Jenna Haze in Just Jenna (Jules Jordan Video, 2010)

• Average videos downloaded per day: 12.3 (2.59 GB)
• Average video size: 214.23 MB

(Tessa Fowler)

• Storage capacity: 8.5 TB
• Average daily download: 4.16 GB
• Days until capacity exhausted: 98 (May 24, 2018)

(Morgan Welsh and Michelle Douglas of the LSU Golden Girls danceline)

• Total slideshow length (3 sec. per image): 202 days, 18 hours, 50 minutes, 6 seconds
• Total video length: 194 days, 0 hours, 39 minutes, 12 seconds
• Total masturbation session: 1 year, 31 days, 13 hours, 29 minutes, 18 seconds.

(Gina LaMarca/Penthouse)

Theoretical measurements:

• Orgasms (1 per 20 min., assumed; this is also expressed as the danni, explained here): 28,570
• Cum (3.7 ml ejaculation, in L): 105.71
• Cum (3.7 ml ejaculation, in US gallons): 27.92

(Tobi Pacific/Cum on Her Face.com)

As you can see we outperformed our acquisitions projection of last year, which had us maximizing capacity sometime by July. In reality storage was exhausted two weeks ago and while some savings have been realized through duplication reduction, new drive capacity is urgent and is currently being explored.

Nonetheless, every byte is backed up. We're confident that if a major incident were to occur — war, zombie outbreak, the end of the Internet as we know it — we are prepared.

I use command prompt and

dir /s >name.txt to list all my files in alphabetical order on notepad.
