I paid RS.
While many do upload for the "celebrity" as Dan noted, most load for the points. 10k in points in a free 30days. An RS a point is earned whenever a person downloads "your" file as a "free" user.
On the hoarding: Obviously. In my case it doesn't impact any "space" issue where I live. I have a 3-bedroom apartment. One room solely has "treasure" packed floor to ceiling. Anything small worth like more that $250 is in my safe-deposit boxes "collection".
The place is a mess because I'm lazy and I am often immobile from depression. MOSTLY cause I'm lazy and don't see any benefit to neatness at this time. Messy but not dirty. There is never anything left on the plate for a bug to eat. And, the cats like to eat bugs - flies, bees, house centipedes, the occasional moth ...
On the valueless items, those would be my files, my writings and my mail [I haven't opened mail since 2002]. Everything else has monetary value.
I-man, not sure where you got 6.6Gb for a DVD. Mine are 4.7Gb, though there are 8.5Gb and 9.4Gb disks I can use. Is that a European standard? I thought it might be a typo, but you used it in your calculation. I can't find anything on this size. The 4.7 # actually makes it "worse".
From when I started tracking them I've done ~1,250 clips/scenes/movies in ~2800 downloads. I'm not a fan of whole movies in today's porn, so it's mostly scenes, mostly "amateur".
This does not include "legal" downloads like from free 3-day passes from "the napster of porn".
