I stream some of my collection from a Plex server.
It makes it very convenient to access much more than my phone can hold.
Does anyone else? ..curious...

Plex didn't make me happy...
KODI is nice: [kodi.tv]
but now I use a Raspberry 4 with a 5TB HDD Plugged in and VLC as Player for Audio/Video-Files.
Lots of Info on the Net:
[www.raspberrypi.com]
[www.youtube.com]
As Remote I use a Tablet with [www.realvnc.com]
With that I can play all my Data on all my Screens in the Homenet.
So I dont unterstand why People are still burning CDs/DVDs/Blu-Rays
I always like to get the original Files as they were recorded no matter what Format.
No need to reEncode in any Way - VLC can play everything!
You can even transform a Raspberry to a [www.hifiberry.com]

All Thanks for the feedback. happyjack, I can relate, but I stuck with Plex and like it now.
RStones and crh, I sent you an invite to share my library. Feel free to ignore or accept it. I am not familiar with this feature.

Big fan of Plex.
We live in two countries with all of our content hosted on a server in Canada.
If we are in the US, or travelling, our content is available to us.
I also hooked up a Homerun tuner to it and use an antenna to watch our US content from Boston.
Tons of flexibility. I bought the lifetime license for $250 CAD.
It's some time setting up, but it saved our bacon during a presentation we were doing. The tech wasn't working, so I grabbed my Amazon Firestick, connected to projector, and logged into our Plex server and saved the day.
