What's ironic is that SSDP discovery (the vulnerable service) is terribly unreliable on my network: "movie night" usually involves several reboots of the media server and client, and possibly even trying more than one client.
Even though my server has about 50-50% odds of showing up, I always get listings from Crackle, no matter how many times I try to hide them. (It always resets with each software update and with all of the clients I have there is a software update every few days)
I am turning off my Plex server this weekend; the thoroughly pizzled game streaming service they launched was the last straw -- they aren't looking to serve their customers, they are looking to get bought by Verizon, Gamestop or do a SPAC.
I believe their revenue model is mainly selling Plex Passes, a one time fee, "lifetime" subscription.
What's the market size is for personal Plex servers in the day and age of streaming services? At what point is the market saturated and can they still support core Plex services once their install base is saturated?
Their TV and Gaming services are clearly a push to new revenue models.
