You probably do.
Let's say you watch new and unique youtube videos for an hour a day, or 365 hours a year. (This is a lot more than I watch, btw)
Let's say we have 5Mbps videos, or half a megabyte per second.
365 * 60 * 60 * 0.5 = 657G/year
A 1TB disk is about $50, for about $25/year to store it at home.
If you upload your videos to S3 Glacier it'll run around $8/year (per year, so after a few years this is more expensive than buying drives).
For comparison, YT premium is $144/year.
I only watch about 10 minutes of unique youtube videos a day on average, so I'm looking at around $1/year cost if I want to archive every single youtube video I've ever seen. It's pretty affordable.
- madeofpalk 5y agoI definitely do not.
- newswasboring 5y ago> Let's say you watch new and unique youtube videos for an hour a day, I wonder for how many users this is true. I personally watch several hours a day of youtube because it's mostly on in the background instead of music. Lots of infotainment channels. I'm pretty sure on average it's like 20mins per day can't find the source though.

- janandonly 5y agoI like your thinking... but why hide a video on a private S3 bucket? I was just thinking about this problem from a different angle. What if everyone, or at least a bunch of willing souls, ran the following script on their on pc's: 1. YouTube-dlc every video you ever watch automatically in the background and save to NEW_VID directory 2. make a checksum of every file that comes into NEW_VID 3. Check by using the checksum if the file already exists on open platforms like https://joinpeertube.org https://joinpeertube.org, https://odysee.com https://odysee.com or https://d.tube https://d.tube 4. If not, upload the file. 5. Delete the file.
