Hi guys

Looking some advice here on storage. I've had my MacBook Pro for 2 and half years. All grand but after switching from Windows I still feel I haven't got my head around absolutely everything on the MacBook.

Anyway - I have 1.7GB left of space on my laptop - which has storage space of 500GB.

I have a lot of duplicate large files for work which I'm going to go through and clear but I have 185GB of Movies, obviously on my iTunes.

I am not sure how to clear this - I like having my iTunes at hand incase I wanna watch something, however I also have the Apple TV and I guess I could say I use it more to watch my movies. It's more if I'm travelling, which isn't too often, then I use my macbook for movies. Is there something that puts all iTunes into a cloud so it doesn't take up space on my laptop? If so, how do I go about doing it? If not, what do you think is my best solution?

What's the best way to free up space on my laptop? Need to look at it today too as I said, only 1.7GB of space left.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks
