I know a person that just "collects" games. They don't play them, they don't distribute them, it's just dowloaded and (poorly) cataloged like a Pokemon collection, unironically trying to catch them all.

Data hoarders. I'm in a plex group on fb and there's people there with libraries that they could never personally watch all of. It sometimes seems like it's more a game of collecting all the things than it is about actually enjoying the collection.

Store the Sentinel 2 imagery for a year - about 500TB.

Now I just have to find a way to avoid the $50k egress cost from AWS.
