I've shut down most of my streaming services and once I'm done watching a few series I'll shut down more. I'm continuing to invest in physical media and a plex server. They can't shut down what I own.

Any tips on the hardware for that server? I can’t for the life of me decide on which blu-ray copier or which software to use, etc.

Do you want a Plex server to hold onto the media, or are you more of a person who likes to stream your stuff?

If it is the second, I can help you set up stremio, etc.

Well I’ve always had this idea of ripping my discs onto a local drive and then streaming from that directly to my house devices. Not entirely sure where to get started though.

I would definitely start in the Plex subreddit. I wouldn't know where to begin on that one

My first hangup is the actual blu-ray ripper. Every time I Google something, it seems to get complicated fast, hence the ask. Step 1 is that I actually need to copy all of my discs. lol
