Yes. Youll have to find one that works for your region though (local servers will have better latency and b/w)

Is there a place to browse options? A lemmy community you recommend perhaps?

Just FYI, as soon as money starts changing hands, it can open you up to a whole extra level of legal damages for piracy, assuming the content isn't licensed for distribution. Ripping your own DVDs for yourself is one thing, but selling access to the copies via a media server is way less of a gray area, and they can point to real numbers as damages.

Yeah it’s definitely way past the line where it becomes worthwhile to go after you and there’s even a money trail somewhere to trace it back. IMO definitely not worth any potential legal headaches to buy or sell a service like this.

Im not certain about lemmy communities but look up plexshares or jellyfin shares in reddit perhaps?

Also while I do agree money complicates things, since you are the purchaser, typically it carries less risk.

In either event stay away from shares that do not offer a cheap (few days) or free trial. Then again never sign up for "lifetime" bs, go on a monthly plan so you can drop them if the QoS drops.
