    Plex is just a media server. You have to acquire content through some other means, then you can host it on a Plex server and stream it to any device that has the Plex app installed.

    I have a Plex server that my entire family has logins for, and I put whatever movies or shows people are interested in. Basically you can make your own mini Netflix.

      I got Plex on a RasPi3 and an external 2TB. I have to limit to 1080p/x264 but works quite well.

      If I want 4K I’ll buy the disc, downloading even Blu-ray quality is so goddamn big.

        I had a pi4 but I found it struggled with transcoding and multiple streams, ended up with too much buffering.
