I'm having my music encoded in 96kbps opus in my phone and it is much more convenient to encode them from flac than another lossy format. I have hundreds of albums bought and ripped to flac on my NAS server. They take about 300 GB out of the 40something terabytes available. I have real rarities stored in there and I pay about 1 euro a month for the cloud backup.

Which cloud backup are you using?

Not OP but BackBlaze B2 has been amazing for me. Very affordable as long as you don't re-download your data super often.

not OP, but checkout rsync.net. Especially their borg repo options.
