But two outstanding omissions remain, those being eBooks and AudioBooks.

Now with music, the audiobooks isn’t too much of a problem, but I agree that it would be nice to see a dedicated section for audiobooks and eBooks. Would it be too far to say including .cbr/.cbz files as well? I personally have a lot of comics from HumbleBundle sales that I would LOVE to have on demand through my PMS.

Ubooquity is one of the only ones I have seen or its the usual Calibre set WAN access to your library.

Ebooks on my Plex server. THAT! would sell me on a Plex Pass…

considering the competition has already provided these features, Plex needs to up its game in this area else will consider alternatives such as Emby

A text to speech feature for big screen TV’s would also be nice,
or a text to audio file for streaming like music.
