With the advent of self hosted streaming services and the arr services the option is even easier now. If 1 in 20 ppl are motivated/tech savvy that's 20 streaming products not being paid for.
What would be the technology behind my own streaming platform?
So far I do it very old school with data on my Nas and a software that catalogs and plays over Lan only.
I thought, im the only one left using this method. Not anymore
Look into the arr suite of apps, radarr + sonarr + prowlarr to manage your library and jellyfin/PleX to play it. Get overseer for request management. You can set it up for remote access from anywhere, have people make requests on overseer and have the data available a few mins later. It's amazing when it's set up.
Plex is the most worked on solution out there, runs on Windows, Linux and Linux headless. For the automation of stuff then looking at suff like radarr and sonar alovk with tracktarr and jackett foe the trackers, along with a torrent client. There is also jellyfin as a media client, it's more open, but getting users onto it could be more problematic as it isn't as straight fwd from what I hear, haven't used it myself though.
