Anyone who was able to use jellyfin should have switched to jellyfin by now. I know there are some people who’s audience can’t… Idk… Make an account. I don’t remember the excuses.
If your data passes through plex’s servers you should assume they can collect data on what you’re watching. If they aren’t now, they could with an update. It always confused me how data hoarders used Plex. Do you really want a third party peeking at your stuff?
Honestly, a part of me hopes Plex does tell streaming services and movie studios how much of their stuff I watch without paying them a dime. Otherwise they would have no clue how much money they’re screwing themselves out of with their shitty practices. I want them to lose sleep over it
Steams approach is a wonderful demonstration of the whole “piracy is a service issue.”
If there was a store where you could buy movies for a couple bucks on sale (kind of like a digital blockbuster) it would really help to curb piracy. Though that’s probably because movies are generally multi million dollar endeavors and steam has a lot of indie games with a budget under $1000.
Still though. The point stands. Even big AAA games go on sale. Just sell the movie. Let people buy Avatar for $1, its over ten years old.
