    There’s something like Plex, but for rich people and with DRM.

    You buy some kind of stupid expensive home theater appliance that’s basically just a NAS, and it downloads movie releases that the company licenses. I think it was a subscription service that includes basically all theatrical releases you might want to watch, even before blu-ray releases are out.

    But you have to use their box, and it costs “fuck you” money.

    So the general idea for high quality media that gets downloaded onto local hardware is out there, but not exactly peddled to middle class consumers or with open DRM.

    Edit: Found it, it’s called Kaleidoscape
