What is special about Plex?
Only Plex gives you the power to combine your personal media collection of movies, TV shows, music, videos, live TV, and photos alongside premium and ad-supported content streams spanning every genre. It's the ultimate entertainment experience.
Why would someone use Plex?
Plex Media Server is a software application that allows you to organize and stream your collection of movies, TV shows, music, and photos, from a central location. Think of it like having your own personal Netflix or Spotify server that you can access from various devices.
Why use Plex over Netflix?
Plex Media Server is a self-hosting alternative, where you run the server software on your hardware (or in the cloud, if you wish) and stream content you supply that way. The Plex streaming service also supplies some ad-supported streaming content, but not on the scale of either Netflix or YouTube.
Is Plex legal?
Plex is legal in ideal use cases because they have agreements with their content providers and advertisers. “Ideal use” basically means, “watching a movie in your living room that you've paid for and legally downloaded.”
