< Midnight drifter, and the Pub-logged transition
Sounds like it's going to be a great place then! :)
Completely get what you mean on keeping things local - I do most of the same. I have no streaming services, watch videos on youtube but if there is anything I enjoy and want to keep around, I download it and save it to my external drive full of television shows, retro game ROMs, and films. I wrote a small wrapper I call 'songsnatch' around yt-dlp for when I want to grab songs from youtube. With all my downloads and CDs and records I already have, I've amassed quite the music collection over the years. :)
I've got a nice 256gb SD card that lives in my Android so I can transfer that media over to it for on-the-go listening. No Spotify around here!
Simplicity is king!
Yep, 128gb MicroSD in my phone that has a folder "MUSIC-MAIN" with everything, and since I started roughly a year ago, I am barely at 700mb (with than m).
I like the idea of keeping a game ROM folder. I keep an OPML file with all RSS feeds and an XML file with all my YouTube subs on-hand, as well as my "tech-synth" notification sound I keep on my phone and my PacMan ringtone - so four non-media files ("non-media" being other than music, or video). I thought of keeping a game ROM folder of cool stuff and even downloaded a bunch of N64 titles playable on Android via some weird apps, but programing the external controller for each game was a pain in the ass, so I abandoned that project. Not much of a gamer, anyway, so....
