alt Hacker NewsCurious why one would pirate media but pay for a media streaming system. Not like there aren't any alternatives like it's the case with VPNs

If you wanna share with friends and family; it's way more accessible than setting up access to a VPN/tailscale/etc.
There are not any alternatives that match every feature. The account system and number of platforms with a Plex app is unmatched. This matters when you share it with others who won't want to tinker with anything.
