How much % you really use the downloaded files?

[j0shin]

I probaby use about 50% of what I download. The rest of what I download is for others, or becuse I see it and think "hey, that might be cool.." and then it just stays on my hd till i need the space, and I delete it

[UsenetGuy]

I download alot and try to keep a good ratio and use probably about 97% of what I download

[dreamhacker]

Software: 100%
Games: 90%
Music: 50%
TV Shows: 75%
Movies: 90%

I'm collecting lots of junk, though it's fun to collect

I don't download games because I'm crap at them. That's a hangover from my Amiga days when a group of us would have access to almost everything and we never really played anything enough to get good at them lol. I look back at that and think it a shame - playing five games a lot would have been so much more fun than playing 50 a little.

Applications? I prolly use about 10%. The stuff I use most on this puter are freeware or legit. Most of the downloaded stuff gets deleted within a week.
When I post NZBs I've mainly only actually downloaded the first or last files in the set to get the nfo file.

Music? If I really like an album I'll buy it but I have to download it to know if I like it. There's not that much around that's worth spending £10-£15 on IMO.

I don't do movies and I only bother getting TV episodes I've missed. There's one episode of Life On Mars that I'll be looking out for.

100%

[samtheman123]

I use about 75% of stuff I download, the rest is just for keeping my ratios up.

[twisterX]

Software: 95%
Games: 70% (Deleted like 5 without even installing )
Music: 99%
TV Shows: 80%
Movies: 100%

[TableTennisRocks]

music : 90%, tv:100% =)

[diana1096]

Music 15%; Video 60%; eBook 10%; Software 15%=100% I use all I get my hands on and share what I buy to offset.

[silky slippers]

I watch all the TV shows and music I download. I only download software I need. So 100% of those.

With movies, I download them for other people in my family and often just in case they want to see them. Other times I'll download a blockbuster I know I don't want to watch, purely because it will help get my ratio up on a tracker.

Approximately 40% for movies.
