While I understand that the Plex company is in the business of making money, I wish they would focus more on improving core features rather than introducing additions like Tidal. Do we really need another very expensive music service? My guess is that most of us don’t.
What I would like to see is bios of the actors in a movie. One of the joys of Plex is clicking on a movie and then seeing the actors names. Click on an actor and you can see all the movies that you own in which they are listed.
How great would it be to not only see just the movies you own but also perhaps the movies you don’t currently own, separated of course, in some manner. How wonderful would it be to see detailed bios of the actors such as the information you get on IMDB? I for one wouldn’t mind paying a small premium for this information. Please give me improvements on the core experience of displaying and playing movies and TV shows. That I will value.

A request for the same feature exists already, and it has more votes.
> [@More detailed Actor/Director Bios, When filtering on Actor/Director](https://forums.plex.tv/t/more-detailed-actor-director-bios-when-filtering-on-actor-director/173380/1):
>
> When Filtering on Actior / Director / Writer etc. More features should be shown on the bio’s page, picture, text, birthdate etc. All information that can either be scraped off imdb, or pulled by providing an imdb username etc.
Therefore this one is closed.
Votes are given back to the users who voted on this request. Please think of re-voting in the other thread if you still want it.
