Do you use paid features of Plex and if yes, which ones? Im using Plex daily to stream shows stored on a SSD connected to Windows laptop. I think I would not miss on any paid features they provide. Initially when I decided to try to watch less mindless tv stuff, I thought there will be a plethora of solutions for home streaming but it turned out that the only one that actually works is Plex

emby is a great alternative that allows more control with easy local accounts and no ad supported content
jellyfin is also great but lacks apps on some devices and is a 100% free OSS alternative

Plex has a tough business model. It’s hard to make money from the pirates.

#10I love open source. Jellyfin looks great, and Embey as well. But Plex "just works". I happily paid for a lifetime and would love to see more development. One of my most used services to watch home videos, listen to audiobooks, and stream my dvd collection.
