Idk, I'd have a pretty good return if I my mom didn't want to use Netflix still. Even after paying for indexers, Usenet providers, storage and electricity. I'm using a discarded laptop with a HDD dock tho, which is plenty for my needs (mostly 1080p movies with 4k for my absolute favorites or new releases which I can then downgrade or delete though I haven't had the need to do so yet)
There is still the topic of power usage, data usage, time spent doing maintenance, and accounting for failing hardware and hardware upgrades.
Thankfully I have a pretty low wattage setup and an unmetered full duplex fiber optic connection. Won't disagree on the hardware (all my homies hate Seagate) and maintenance. I don't do a lot, but it sure can derail half my day.
