I collected about 10 gigabytes of what I like, but I got tired of it so to speak, there were no download buttons, so I had to steal the old-fashioned way without tricks.

In fact, I’ve been trying to put together a compact portable library that I can carry around on flash drives, because I have a really bad feeling about the near future.

    People are suggesting Jellyfin which is a great solution for media like music, movies, etc. If you want to have offline copies of large knowledge repositories, like Wikipedia etc, look into Kiwix.
