I'm a 2nd gen geek (Dad was a programmer in the 60's)

My most memorable presents were from Heathkit.

So, it would be fair to say that this hasn't just been a passion, it's been my life

Yet - I still have a workstation at home with ~50TB of storage and the power to locally create my own content. All of my media is also bought directly from artists where/when I can and stored in local, physical form

Virtually nothing is kept in the cloud

Right there with you...
