What is the best TV/movie service I can set up for someone who is not tech savvy and wants something that just works?
Happy to buy hardware if needed. Just trying to avoid large streaming services abhorrent business practices.

+1 again to what Mancy said. I just pay for the convenience. But yeah, if it's not cumbersome for you to manage your own server then that's great too!
As for the cost, oof I can't even imagine. Besides, they have to make use of CDN services and what-not just so that the experience is consistent worldwide.
But then again, the server that I'm a part of has like 100 people paying every month, and this network is a consolidation of many such servers, so I think the costs and labor get distributed.
