This is also what I do.  We also keep the DVD's for using at the trailer
where internet is very expensive.  For Music I've been buying the download
for years so if I want a CD I burn one myself.  (I have not done this is
many years now - but I could!)

I connect to it at work on Sundays when I'm alone so I can listen to
music.  I was running subsonic for that (ran it for years and years) but
recently I switched to plex since it was running anyway and by scrapping
Subsonic I could get rid of the JRE too! ;)
