Nope! I recently deleted it all and it freed up literally terabytes of space. In 6 years of YouTube, I've never once needed it after filming.

B roll is a totally different story, and I've found an archive to be priceless.

I've been keeping everything for now, but so far have never gone back to dig up the a-roll. I'm going to trash it all when I need the space. I've screencap'd a youtube video where I want to show that it was on youtube with the date and such. Agreed about b-roll tho.

  I've been making tutorials since 2013 and I have never ever needed to go back and re-edit anything. Especially after a month or years have passed. In fact, if I need to reference an old video, I download the 720p version from YouTube. A-roll is a waste of space IMO.

  Haha I’m in the same position. Kept everything so far but man it’s eating up my storage space.
