Plex essentially has two suites: its original functionality is to locally host your private media library, acting as a client-side server for all of your movies, music,plex.tv link code and other multimedia. If you were a media nerd in the early 2000s, there’s a good chance you kept an external hard drive loaded up with music and video files, often ripped from DVDs and CDs you’d purchased.Having an extensive library of content was a desirable trait before we all had access to massive online media libraries.
