Inspired by XBMC-a free, open-source media player software application-they decided to develop a program that would enable users to centralize media storage in one location that they could then access at home or remotely. Plex began as a passion project for the company’s co-founders, Elan Feingold and Scott Olechowski. Thanks to the company’s client-server media player system and software suite, music lovers, movie buffs and binge watchers can now access their media libraries from anywhere in the world. From long flights and endless layovers to hotels with the same selection of boring channels, travel can leave you longing for the media you left at home-unless you’ve discovered Plex.
