How many AMV's do you have on your computer at a time?

Right now it seems i have around 20GB or so, which is a pittance compared with the project files and clips i have sitting around - those are easily 4 times that.

the most I have ever had was probably like 25 vids?

I download and sort them after I've watched them (MEP, drama/action, upbeat/comedy), then burn off DVDs when any of those folders reaches DVD size. Occasionally when any two combined categories reach DVD size. So anywhere from 0 to 6 gigs or so. I keep my own on hand all the time, though.

For a while I had a folder of favorites on my hard drive all the time, but it's usually just as easy to watch them from DVD, and I need the space.

about....40GB.....

at least we'll be safe in the knowledge that if the .org ever losses some vids Godix or Addy have probably got it

over 1k, and i'm too lazy to count the gigs. Not including the 50 cds of amvs I have that I haven't put back on my PC so I can have space for source.

since I'm on 56k I rarely delete videos for pretty obvious reasons...

Right now I have about 130 on my hard drive totalling 6.67 GB, although I have probably something like 20 CDs completely full as well. I tend not to go above 10 GB on my computer before I back them up to CD, especially because I rarely delete videos if I think there's a chance I might want to watch them again sometime in the future. I also have a text file that tells me which AMVs are on which discs...>_>

I never let myself go above 300 videos in my "permanent collection," and I don't back them up to CD/DVD. This could be considered my downfall, given my next point. My HD went semi-corrupt, and I had to replace every single video on it. Well, I've been making this collection for a long, long time, so a number of those videos I simply couldn't get back. Others I realized I didn't want back. Still others were things that just come from my digital packrat-ism (example: Elfen Lied fansubs when I already bought the DVDs ages ago).

Between what I was able to re-download from various sources, I now have 187 videos back on my HD. Of course, I also keep a well-organized Word document that lists another 627 videos that were interesting enough to take note of, but not quite enough for me to want to keep. Furthermore, I'm always on a decent internet connection, so I don't mind having to re-download something if I want to watch it.

Properties say that I'm eating up 8.83 gigs of my HD with these AMVs.

I only keep the actually good ones. So far about 12 gigabytes worth of them. Though, my hard drive did die last year, so there are some gems I have been unable to aquire back.
