What's the point? If a drive starts failing just redownload it again. I really don't see the point on keeping everything constantly off-line when I can just torrent them again.

Sometimes you're the only seeder for some torrents.

That's fine. I'm likely not going to watch it again. If I really care, I'll either rent it from the library or post a request on a torrent site.
