I run Plex Media Server on it, and have access to all of my stuff on all of my devices. It's pretty handy. I have a Roku stick that I take on vacations, and plug it into hotel TV's to watch my stuff. Firestick, Windows, Android, Roku... they all have apps. I'm sure Apple does too, but I can't say for sure.

EDIT: Oh geez... looks like they've got an app for EVERYTHING, LOL.

I paid the lifetime license on it for 120 dollars.

If you are not familiar with Plex, it automatically associates your movies, TV series, etc. to avatars, etc.



Then gets you info on the cast, etc.



Then, I believe this is the specific episode info you would have found in TV Guide.... or something, LOL.

I just noticed that Plex released their own version of Winamp that will stream your music too!!!

I need to test that out.

I think there is a free version, but it's limited in some ways.
