Digital Howard 

An obscure magician’s misdirect. Dates back to the late 1800’s, invented by William Radley and named after famed magician Howard Thurston. Involved creating a spectacle to draw people’s attention, and then using deft pickpocketing skills (digits) to nick as many valuables as possible while people were distracted.

If I tap you on the right shoulder so you look right, and then steal your wallet out of your left pocket, that's a Digital Howard

Digital-hoarder 

Collecting digital media for the sake of collecting it, not watching and/or listening to it. Accumulating titles that you have no interest in, no intent of using for entertainment and no desire to do anything with except just possessing it.

I downloaded the complete discography of Michael Buble because I'm a digital-hoarder.

Digital Hoarding 

The practice of never deleting a file from online archive; one who practice digital hoarding must do so without guilt or fear from reprisal. They just buy more space.

Itʻs a good thing I practice digital hoarding, otherwise I would never have been able to find that document from 2006.
