What an amazing piece of software this is. Basically, it allows you to set up a Netflix type of thing for your own network multimedia streaming. While it has some official "channels" you can add to it and stream from outside sources, it also also allows you to take your own multimedia and stream it from your computer in an organized format.
I've spent the last several days ripping my DVDs to digital copies and have been streaming my video to my Roku box. So far I've added two seasons of Friends, the first season of Boston Legal, the 8th season of The Practice and the first two seasons of Married with Children. It is awesome to be able to easily stream these videos to my TVs. And from what I understand, I can also stream it from computers in remote locations (I haven't gotten there yet).
Plex is an app which comes on many different pieces of hardware, whether it's a Roku, Google TV, PS3, Xbox, or smart TV.
I highly recommend this piece of free software.
