Depends how they archive their material i guess. I suppose famous bands stuff might be kept with their producer. And there's nothing to say they even used hd, dat is still used quite a lot. Just trying to offer an explanation. Seems a lot of mp3 and divXs to have!

how did they get hold of the skype call? did he record it, or is skype no longer peer-to-peer?

So would i. Maybe not in multi-tracked memory heavy form.

He must have recorded it. I don't use Skype to know if that's something you can do easily or if you need a screengrabber but I'm sure it's pretty easy if you know what you're doing.

Mary Bell case completely different though....as I'm sure you know. Not really comparable is it?

I got twice that on my media server, 1TB is porn (legal stuff) only ever seen the first mins of most of them films mind. 3TB drives where like £70-£80 a pop when i got most of mine.
and as the others say, WAV and FLAC files and the such are HUGE

Hardly getting over it.
The severity of her crime makes the aftermath w/r/t post-prison children comparable, IMO, even though the case itself was of child murder, not child rape.

You have 50 tb in store?

Once you start tinkering with stuff you tend to want it all there when you get back to it - you can't split it out again (well, very rarely you can if you're clever, but mostly not). I don't know what the deal is once you become 'successful' in terms of archiving everything (I'd think the record company would want to keep everything they thought they could make money off), but everyone I know has always kept the bulk of it as FLAC/wav in Cubase projects or whatever.

Of course they do. Why would that only apply to music though?
I think the music explanation could well explain the size.
Plus on top of all the different tracks, they record different takes. These are often kept to be used as over dubs etc. Although this is all usually done in the studio, bands do their own demo stuff pre expensive studio time and might also want copies for themselves of any studio work done.

He's a millionaire - he can buy any box set he wants.£59 isn't going to scare him.
It doesn't just apply to music. But the point I'm making is we might just be talking about 13.5 Tb of data rather than 27.

more than that, split over 2 PC's now, used to be full on pirate but jacked it all in. it's all 1080p movies and 720p/1080p TV shows etc, plus for some reason i have about 3-4 TB of game rips for 360,PS2, dreamcast etc...
can't bring myself to delete it all or sell them, last count i had over 60TB of stuff, still download stuff to watch and it's all conneted to my home network to play in the living rooom etc.

We're not talking about a studio, we're talking about his house. Not the rehearsal place - his house. It'd be him crying into a microphone at his table or something. Basic stuff i would think?

Yeah, a mate of mine did an album that I thought sounded great, then he told me it was a demo and the record company would want everything recording again from scratch. Seemed a bit expensive and pointless. Even more so when they spoiled it with way too much compression.

sorry that was a quote from the papers... i'm rush posting while trying to complete a shed load of work i should have done last week.

We might be talking about 6.5 or 3.25. That people back up data (and they don't, as i have found out to my personal cost) doesn't say much on its own.
But like i said, bands often record themselves. He may have even had his own studio at home? He was a millionaire musucian, it isn't out of the ordinary that he'd convert a room entirely for musical purposes and fill hard drives up in it.

and she was ten years old so I'm not sure it is comparable....
Apologies, yeah you're comparing to that post, fair enough

Which is why its - as i said - the most likely explanation. I just didn't realise there was so uch memory around - and, i forget who posted it, £70 for 3tb? When? At no point up to now or ever.

But the basic principle of judging every child protection decision is the same. I've only limited experience of these decisions and in very different circumstances, working with women with very chaotic and severe psychotic illnesses. It was vital that each pregnancy and child is separately assessed. You have to take a critical stance which nonetheless allows the possibility of change, however remote.
That said, I suspect in these cases, it's unlikely. And my personal opinion that's a just lifelong punishment. But that's also why I don't envy those who have to assess and make these decisions.
