What the heck is this thing? Should many of us care?
Seems to be some kind of centralized streaming service catalog. Never heard of it before now and no idea why anyone would be willing to pay $30 for it let alone $60.
Ok I used to feel sorry for non-libre streaming software users, but this is now in "one born every minute" territory. Thanks.
Tracking*
It tracks watch history and allows you to build lists, in a way that should integrate with other services. How well it does that is questionable
Some people might still be using it out of habit or loyalty, but a $30 price jump might change that
I used to use it to sync my watch history between Plex and Emby but stopped years ago when I dropped Emby. I can't imagine what they're offering that people would want to pay for though.
I use it to track my watchlist on Emby as well, never even knew there was a paid part of it. No idea what that would even cover.
