Are you at a point where you keep downloading every new uploads that you don't even consume it?

I started off by consuming every single thing I downloaded right away, but nowadays I do just let it all pile up it gets a bit overwhelming now since I'm not even sure what I have downloaded on my PC so I'll have to sort through it soon so I don't run out of space ...^^'

this sounds pretty similar to me. i like downloading a lot of cds, but only the ones that catch my interest. i do plan to delete the ones i don't like, but for now, i'm still keeping them. maybe i'll delete them someday lol.

Yes, I've had this same problem since I started the drama cd hobby for like 4-6 years now and I've started to ignore my backlog too even if I paid for them. Then I have a WL on dlsite just in case some expensive cds go on sale in a few months or many years down the line and I still care enough to buy them so it's like years of old cds and djs.

I would've been fine with it if genAI didn't trash all consumer tech industry and now HDDs are expensive so I realize it might be a good time to stop collecting stuff but it's a challenge. I mean, what if the world ends and I lost the internet? Surely, I'll be glad to have all my downloaded content for entertainment, right?

I've started to buy more than I listen for sure. I've been trying to narrow it down via theme category - current favorite vs new contender so that if it isn't equal or better, I can throw it somewhere and move on. When I'm dealing with hundreds of works, I need to streamline the process lol. Right now I'm buying two yandere idol works by the same VA and figuring out which one is going to stay for the theme after a listen.
