Keep in mind this open source journal has an impact factor of 3.2. They seem legit and not shady, but this is just a case report in a little impact journal and shouldn't be extrapolated much.

Back then you wouldn't necessarily sneak anything in, you'd bribe the projectionist (cash, ass, or grass) to set up in the booth and line-in the audio feed with a splitter. Then you'd sell it to the guy at the flea market who would make copies and sell for the low.

I prefer music/audio on Plex & PlexAmp, with one caveat. They nerfed music on Plex (regular app) and there's certain platforms (Nvidia Shield) that don't support PlexAmp, so it kinda sucks in that one specific case. But PlexAmp works great for my phone and desktop/laptop (although i use foobar for my desktop to play local files).

PlexAmp also has some nice UI/QOL features like their "artist radio" stuff and "shuffle recently added music" type things.

Jellyfin music is much more barebones / build it yourself. I haven't dove much into it because the jellyfin naming conventions to auto tag media don't vibe 100% with my library so it's a mess in some spots and i haven't manually fixed it all yet. My music library is large and this would take a while. Plus PlexAmp works great so I don't feel a need to do anything with it yet and i don't mind running both systems on my server.

I prefer jellyfin for video, not audio. But only local network for me at this time. I can VPN into my home network for jellyfin but why bother if Plex streams remotely fine and I'm usually watching on a phone or tablet anyway so quality doesn't matter. But i swear jellyfin video is higher quality than plex video but it's probably not and I'm just biased lol
