That's what happened with me, I just had too many movies/albums/tv shows and it would have taken a loooot of discs to back it all up, and at the time I didn't have any discs. Now I'm sorry
Ah, I really hope I can get my stuff back.
If not then at least now I'll have an external hard drive to use for back up's.
