    With Radarr, Sonarr, and Plex, I get a better TV and movie service than anything I could pay for. I can afford to pay, and I would, but they won’t offer anything reasonable. I ditched Netflix years ago when they removed the rating system to promote their low quality schlock. They kept removing content. Content would auto-play. Discovery broke as they kept trying to make me watch things I didn’t want to watch. If they make their products worse, and keep charging me more every year, they shouldn’t be surprised when I leave.

      Same. I signed up for Netflix when they came to Canadas in 2010. Immediately had to start using proxies/vpn to access US Netflix since Canada’s selection was broiled ass.

      By 2013 there was news of Netflix talking of blocking non-US users from accessing US Netlix. Immediately cancelled, spun up my Plex server. 30TB later and I got 18 friends off of all their streaming services too lol

      Pro-tip: Plex is slowly enshittifying, a good open source alternative is Jellyfin.

      I don’t think you can even get a service as good as the Arrs if you’re rich and have insanely expensive stuff like Kaleidescape.
