      If pirating tv/movies was as easy on Apple TV or a gaming console as Netflix is, I would drop it in a second. I’m paying them exclusively for convenience and to fund my laziness.

          I’ve honestly given that some serious thought. A mini pc or laptop as a dedicated media server or streaming device wouldn’t be a bad idea at all.

            I actually just recently did this after a misplaced magnet nearly took away my digital media collection. Turns out a Plex server is stupidly easy to set up and you can stream it everywhere you can watch Netflix.

            Just to add, once you have your own server, you can share your library with up to 100 friends on Plex. Just become your own streaming service for basically free.
