With everyone self hosting huge servers like this, my question is.. how can I access some large ones like this? Kodi, Plex?
Kodi & Plex are just ways to manage, organize, and browse a multimedia collection.
If you're talking about accessing a specific server that has a large collection of multimedia on it, accessing it is fairly simple
Step 1: Have a friend who is hosting such a multimedia collection on their server Step 2: Ask that friend if you can have a login to access it.
To my knowledge there aren't really any people hosting such servers that are giving away access to people they don't personally know. Certainly not for free.
I think the illegality of it usual restricts it to people you know fairly well.
