Storing and saving data evolved from floppy disks, CDs and DVDs, USB flash drives, and external hard disks. The internet age now revolves around cloud storage which helps in saving space on your devices. You have Apples iCloud, Google Drive, One Drive and Amazon Drive. Testing Amazons unlimited cloud storage program, a user uploaded up to 1 Petabyte of porn. To put it into perspective, 1 Petabyte is equal to 1,024 Terabyte or approximately a million GB.

Didn't Amazon get rid of their unlimited storage a while back?

How do you literally get 1,000 terabytes of porn!? >_>


4K porn is like 8-15 TB a video. I don't download porn but that probably adds up.

In estimation, the total of 1,011PB of video uploaded will take 13.3 years of watch time in HDTV. Breaking it down, watching the videos for eight hours every day will take you 40 years to complete the entire collection.

How could he even watch all of that?

Beaston02 may be done with his self project, but many users are unhappy and blame him for ending Amazons unlimited cloud storage which was priced at $60 per year. Amazon ended its unlimited cloud storage plan back in June, and this activity was posted six months ago on Reddit. If you follow the thread on Reddit, you will see many angry Redditors pointing his doing as the reason behind it.

Thanks a lot, pal. You ruined a good thing.

I am not sure if I can link to a thread but redditors did the math and said his porn storage on Amazon was costing them like $40,000 a year iirc.

This is why we can't have nice things.

There's no way that's right. UHD Blu-rays can only hold 100GB of data the last time I checked.

I meant GB. My mistake. That wouldn't make sense if one video took up an entire 8 TB hard drive...

That honestly sounds like bullshit to me, I need a source for that claim.

Okay, that's a lot more reasonable.

What the fuck is your problem?

They advertised unlimited cloud storage. All he did was put their claim to the test. If anything, you should be grateful because it proved that they were not planning to uphold their end of the bargain if things got too dicey for them.

Sounds like they did uphold it and then discontinued the service. Just like some assholes that goes and eats at an all you can eat buffet and just gets 50 plates of shit and dumps it in the trash to try and get a laugh.

That guy is an asshole, because it's not an all-you-can-trash buffet, it's an all-you-can-eat buffet. He's not being faithful to the understanding that he should only eat all-he-can-eat. Amazon promised UNLIMITED cloud storage. This man attempted to utilize that service as expressed. I can't even imagine the level of physical media it took for him to store all that porn on his own, I bet he was absolutely relieved to be able to store it on a cloud. All he did was attempt to use a service as advertised.
