I'm not sure who downvoted you, but I cannot agree more.
For giggles, I just went ahead and priced this out:
One-time costs:
* Plex Pass: $80
* NZB indexer access: $10 (for 2 or 3)
Ongoing monthly costs:
* File server (three-year deprecation): $55
* IPTV: $15
* Unlimited Usenet account: $3
This took an afternoon of setup, but has just worked since. Heck, the other day I discovered a new season of a show had apparently been released – because it completed downloading and filled Plex overnight.
