Every time someone mentions an interesting book, I make a note of it. Then a couple times a month, I go back through my notes, pop open a website that shall not be named, snag em all, throw them into calibre-web and sync them down to my ereader. I can get hours of enjoyment from a 1-2MB file, and I love that. Same for older cartridge-format game roms, a N64 rom is generally under 50MB and can keep me busy for days, an NES or GB ROM is usually smaller file size than a book, and some great old DOS games clock in at a handful of MB.

What other great bang-for-the-storage-buck stuff is out there that you enjoy?

    There’s an old game called “total annihilation”, amazing game, I’ve played for probably a couple hundred hours over the years.It’s file size is pretty small too though I can’t remember off the top of my head.

    It’s an RTS, there is a more modern version (free I believe) with better QOL and graphics called “Beyond All Reason” though it’s much larger
