It seems like nobody is content to maintain a commercial product that does one thing: play media well. Plex Media Server is now going down the same path: They're trying to do their own streaming services, be a portal for podcasts, have a partnership with TIDAL, etc. They recently hijacked the home screen UI to shill their library of completely awful TV shows and movies that nobody wants to watch (though it can be disabled easily). Seriously considering a move to Emby at this point.
