Maybe you want to watch them later?

Anyway, I suggest you don't use it then and keep on shuffling around with your usb stick.

As someone with too many shows and movies on my Plex, I agree with his methods.

My life would be simpler if I torrented, watched once, and deleted.

I disagree. What if you want to rewatch some old obscure show? Also I share my server with a bunch of people, it would be very hard to keep track of what everyone wants to watch with an on-demand system.

Also streaming services removing shows is one of my pet peeve, so I'm really against deleting anything.
