Building a cheap NAS with shucked drives running Plex on unraid was the best decision ever. I won’t lie it’s not cheaper than just paying for 1-2 subscriptions and I have spent time managing it but having agency over the content available is so nice and if I don’t have disposable income for a time I can just not add new drives
Better quality, don’t need 7 subscriptions to access all content, and don’t have to worry about things getting shelved. It’s funny because Netflix in like 2014 is why I stopped pirating but it was Netflix in 2019 that made me start pirating again. Spotify is getting real close to making me pirate music again too
