Well, it depends on the quality of course. You could download movies of 120GB, it will fill up really fast that way. Not that I do that lol. For me it's just years and years of collecting, while also having had loads of time at work to watch stuff (like 5 months naval deployments). Now I enjoy my military disability pension, so now I have too much free time to get through.
Hope you can enjoy your pension as much as possible.
I generally don't download that large sizes because I don't really have a fancy monitor or anything, but I tend to watch it once and then actually if I want to keep it, I re-encode it or compress it to something that stores well.
Honestly, I have a 4k beamer but 1080p is good enough imo. The higher the resolution, the more details which looks fake. Why would a movie look more sharp than real life. I miss the productions like Band of Brothers. Rough, no/barely cgi. Looks real. Also the details you see with 4k porn are the details I don't want to see. But that's just my opinion.
Also, do you actually see any difference between a movie of 12gb and 120gb? I do not.
