That’s a shit load of downloading. LOL wow!

I have 56TB of storage and the majority of that is definitely downloaded media. They call us data hoarders for a reason.

Oh sure I understand data hoarding. I was just thinking, to restore 50 tb from the internet is going to take more than a fortnight.

It’s literally downloading the same amount of data you would be backing up, and you won’t be charged hourly for downloading it from the internet as opposed to a large storage service.

Imagine having to back up 50Tb to S3 :p
Not everyone has a symmetric connection.
