    I only recently started using Plex because they added the Drew Carey Show. I didn’t know they were anything other than a streaming service.

      Their main product is a server that you run on a computer and lets you stream your own content.

        Their main product is telemetry and selling your watch history to advertisers.

        That’s why Plex doesn’t work without an active internet connection.
