I'm sorry. But what is Plex

It's a server you run on a PC and then can access it from other devices. I think they have some streaming stuff but for the most part, it's bring-your-own-files.

How do you bring your own files?

Piracy is the main way, but I guess you could rip DVDs and put the files on your server that way. Let's be honest tho, 99% of Plex Servers are just pirated content.

Think of plex as netflix. In this instance you are finding and downloading the content you want to watch, upload it to plex, and then youll be able to watch it wherever whenever you want completely free and ad free. The UI is essentially netflix as well.

Its awesome. Alot of work, but very rewarding.
