I bought dedicated hardware and shucked a lot of drives to get all the storage I needed. I modded and old case to put this in, added a couple of blu ray drives for ripping my media. Also I needed to update music brainz because it had incorrect or non existent data.

I had an initial server that was quick and dirty and was great, but I needed it to handle all of my media and it does pretty well. Always can use more storage because I’m constantly buying media on discs.

Ahhh, I don’t remotely use recommendations. So no wonder why I don’t understand.

Like I thought.

Subscribing does not do anything special other than bookmark channels. It does not give you better content at all which is why none of the responses make any sense.

But to your point, non functioning running boards aren’t going to do that, nor mirrors not folding, etc.

I get that, but how does that get you better content?? It’s no different if you sub or don’t sub to a channel

That’s why I never bought any smartphones, I wondered how I’d make phone calls if something else broke on it. Like what happens if the camera dies, or the battery fails? /s

Oh right, you fix it or replace it like everything else in the world.

We should probably stop advancing technology for the sake of the few drawbacks….sounds kinda silly doesn’t it?

How does clicking “subscribe” get you any better content from yt? Less clicks? Sure. Good stuff, no.

Or do you mean YT premium?

TIL people have extra space for porn on their Plex servers. I’m surprised because I don’t think I’ve saved any porn since the dialup days because, well, dialup.

It’s actually really easy to beat the integrated apps, you use a device actually meant to stream, not your TV. TVs lack pretty much everything to be a real streaming solution except for the video and audio output part … that they do well.

Thanks. Remember, Plex is for YOUR media, so you know, I feel ripping is part of the basics of getting things setup and going.

As a note to other readers: I still rip everything manually because something at some point breaks an automated process and it has to be done manually anyway….so I just do it all manually these days. Takes less time, and when I have done my library over again (a few times) I still did it all manually.

I have a decent setup and I don’t use any of that. No need for that when I’m using discs as my sources vs downloads.

I was not talking about just installing the server itself, the whole planning, installing, organizing etc. being more than 15 mins

TK420 , to technology in Plex Users Fear New Feature Will Leak Porn Habits to Their Friends and Family

It’s not a 15 minute setup no. However, if you have lots of media and devices, this is really the only thing like it. Yes there are alts, but it’s the same boat.
