Plex is an app for your personally owned video and music files. It has a decent interface and you can share your library with friends. You need to have your own server at home, but plex apps can’t run independently without being logged into the plex external server.

The plex pass is essentially paying for transcoding your media into more streamable formats.

Sounds like a security risk to me, to expose my (of course very legal) files to some rando internet company.
