TLDR:

Current ad free plans for Disney+ and Hulu are now raising $3 more on October 12. Both becoming $13.99 and $17.99.

    I don’t remember seeing Overseerr mentioned before although I do remember someone describing a request system like that for Plex a while back.

    It’s interesting… I have never really tried to get my family using anything like that but I have had the lifetime Plex Pass for years now.

    I think it’s about time for me to finally start expanding my local media collection again so maybe I’ll give adding it to the mix a shot.

      Honestly, it’s been a game changer for my family and I. To go with Overseerr, I setup multiple Radarr and Sonarr instances, to cover 4K and anime. That way, anything they request in regular 1080p is auto-approved and downloaded, whereas 4K content requires I approve it first, mainly so I can manage free storage effectively.

      Once I’ve managed to save up enough to deploy a much bigger storage solution, I’ll just let 4K be auto-approved too.

        Makes sense to me… Might still be worth looking into Plex Debrid though to stream anything not worth keeping.

          That’s an excellent point - there’s no reason for a one or other approach. There’s plenty of content we only watch the once, then I delete later on when doing a cleanup.

            Same… It’s part of why I know I can actually make this work if I start cancelling paid streaming services and go all in on yo ho ho and a bottle of rum again… Because I don’t currently have as much storage as I’d like but I’ve still got some.

            :)
