Yeah it costs, depending on quality of course.
My 14 TB disks are filling up faster than I expected and I am not close to Netflix’s catalogue.

Yeah, I got a 14tb drive back in February and it's 90 percent full already. My media collection will always grow to fill the space available.

You guys wouldn't happen to have any tips on DVD ripping would you? I'd like to go all digital but I just can't make Handbrake work.

I've never gotten Handbrake to do anything I wanted. DVD Shrink, on the other hand, is one of my top five most-used apps. It's quite old, but DVD encryption hasn't changed since its release.

I couldn't either... I ended up using dd, though it's probably not the best way by a long shot.
