Shit dude, give me access to most things I want to watch and most of the stuff I've forgotten about and that's worth $50/month as a minimum.
I've come full circle back to wearing an eye patch. I was using amazon, hulu, hbo and paramount, usually letting some lapse or pause to watch stuff on the other ones but they have all gone to shit. It's impossible to find what you might be interested because just like netflix they show the same shows/movies in multiple categories and their search sucks ass plus they are all missing a ton of good shows.
Now I am slowly downloading shows from the past that I don't already have in my library and haven't watched in years while I keep an eye out for new shows I might be interested in. I use showrss to auto download current shows that it has in its DB to a vps and I have sync setup to mirror it to my nas so I can stream it to my TV with vlc. So much easier than opening hulu, finding the show I want to catch up on, etc.
I’ve gone through the effort to build a 50terabyte media center. And am slowly filling it with tv shows, movies, and documentaries I like. It’s expensive and inconvenient. But still a fun hobby.
But the reason I do it is because I can have everything in one spot. Easily accessible. I control it. Never going back.
This is the way. It's just me who watches stuff off my nas and I'm fine with vlc so I don't use plex or jellyfin or whatever. I have an old (at this point) qnap nas that I've been doing the same with. Mine is a total of 40tb'ish iirc. I definitely need to get a second nas and some more drives but for now what I have is enough though I am going to run out of space soonish.
