What's in your archive that's 600+ TB?

Mine's tidy but not overly tidy. For example, I don't rename every file. I have a folder called "TV shows live action" and folders inside that are the name of the show and years aired. Every season is one zip file as store compression.
I think this is reasonable and cuts down on clutter. I used to obsessively rename files in the past and it wasn't worth the trouble.
(root directory)
TV shows cartoon
Futurama
"Futurama Season 1" etc as zip files in store compression (to reduce the number of files)
This way everything is simple and intuitive and I can just copy/unzip whatever I want to watch. Or if I want to give stuff away to other people, I can retrieve and copy everything very quickly. I've been doing this for years and it's efficient without costing me a lot of my time.
