    If only my TV had a Jellyfin app, I could switch, but alas it doesn’t. Got to use Plex if I want to watch stuff from any home streaming thingy. That said, it’s free to do that, at least.

    I just don’t have the money or time to buy an external box and fiddle with it to get it running these days either, otherwise I’d build a modern version of the XBMC server I used to have in days gone by :-(

      This is one of the most beneficial reasons to even run Plex; it’s ubiquitous. I can access it from nearly everywhere with a simple TV alone, and also provide access to family without having to run tech support for them or requiring any additional investments on their part.
