I appreciate that that is your opinion.

IMHO It does not matter whether the stored material is a movie or anything else. I still don't see how you could watch all 120 hours of HD material. You are simply using up part of your storage for archived material.

I see the extra disk space being used to record suggestions which you may watch or just delete.

For me 0.5TB will be more than adequate for my normal viewing and recording suggestions. I don't feel the need to keep copies of things.
