re: Old Home Video Online Storage

I do this for my family on a plex server.
I went ahead and paid for the lifetime Pass membership for some reason. I think it allowed sub accounts and free access to either Roku or iPhone app or something like that, and I wanted the easiest experience possible for everyone. The other reason was it allowed me to share a local antenna TV signal over Plex to my family (maybe that was the reason I actually did it- they were evacuated during a hurricane and wanted to see the local coverage of the aftermath/announcements. It may just be wholly unnecessary for what you want).
I also have the lifetime premiere version of Emby which is extremely similar with a few +/- to both.


In terms of redundancy, I have a copy on my local hard drive and another on a synology NAS in RAID, and there are digital copies at most of my siblings’ homes. Real backup would include redundancy with an online or remote site mirror, but i am not that fancy and understand the risk.
