    If you're ever going to cut the cord, I recommend Plex. I have hundreds of movies and my favorite TV shows and I keep adding every day. I also have it set up so that when an episode of a show I follow airs it adds it to my plex server. Since I started using plex i barely use netflix. I still pay for it since there are a few things that ive yet to add to my library and because of their original shows.

      Soon VLC will be able to broadcast to Chromecast. I compiled the latest dev version and it was still buggy but when it'll be done, it'll be a cool option.

        Neat, thats great. I switched from VLC to DAUM potplayer a while ago. I cant remember why it was. I wonder if it will handle libraries or will it be just the file that its open. Pretty cool nonetheless. I used videostream before plex. With VLC adding chromecast support some people might not use videostream in the future.

      We should start a /t/plex to share some of our servers.

      Plex is, I believe, integrated into our Roku and our Roku TV - if not it was easy to add. It's been awesome for sure. So many great tools and abilities and I know we've just barely scratched the surface on it.
