They aren’t though, price per GB on renewed storage with warranty is less than 10 cents a GB. That’s insanely low compared to just five years ago.

that's also renewed storage, and i guess compared to the last decade it's pretty good.

But even then compared to the continual creep of file sizes, it's debatable. I mean 4k took off the last 5-10 years. I have yt videos ranging from 1-20 GB for 4k content now.
