I did something similar with all my kids movies. I just ripped their dvds because they were destroying them every few months and I probably bought Madagascar three times before ripping it.
The UX is better than any streaming service.
Fortunately I had a synology nas already as a backup server so I just installed Plex on it and it was so easy. This was probably 15 years ago and I still have all those video files and the dvds are in a box somewhere untouched.

- CobaltFire 3y agoIt’s a very slick app on AppleTV. It can operate as a front end for media servers or it can act as a player for a network share. Super easy to run as a player for a network share, you just lose by account things (save your spot and pickup anywhere, content filtering, etc).
