School is where I first saw these. Every classroom had bootleg disks. They’d buy one copy of a program and then copy one for each classroom. Later when moving to PC’s from the Apple II, they’d clone each hard drive in that school from a master drive.
Personally, I use NFL Redzone. If I try to sit through a full NFL game, I’d sleep. Unless it’s one that is hilariously bad…..like the Dolphins and Jets game last Friday 🤣
I’m in that boat myself as I’ve got a TON of DVD-R’s I recorded off of WWE Classics on Demand. I usually use Handbrake for that. Especially if you have DVD-R’s recorded over 10-15 years ago and up, it’s better to start backing them up now. I’ve had discs that are lost forever because they started to go bad and bit rot.
There’s a rule I was always told in A+. Either a hard drive is going to last you less than a year or it’s gonna last you five. Usually any problems with a hard drive you’ll see right away. However after the third year is when I’d start checking the drive. There are tools out there that can let you know when a drive is in the caution level and that’s when you should think about replacement. I’ve had hard drives like one I have to replace soon last me eight years with constant use as a Plex drive.

Private. Speeds are much better and your stuff lasts longer. I tried several times to have public options for my Coliseum Video uploads and all have failed in some way. At least with private trackers, I know that they’ll stay seeded for a long long time.
