Why do people want to archive loads of material that they'll never, ever get round to watching?

Choice.
I only have the choice of watching something if its on my hard drives, I don't have that choice if I don't have large drives.
Netflix, Now TV etc are all good except when you want to watch a tv episode and find that that episode or even the entire season of a series has been removed.
Roll on laser drives and over the next decade 100TB drives.
