Yup @duece7 with limited downstreams this is not a great option.
Thanks! these are great. Hopefully I can get in on the beta and test this out. Seriously, this is exciting.
As others have said, I worry about the copyright stuff. NOt sure how I am going to prove I own what I put up on the Cloud Drive. I’d be interested in thoughts on this.

Cool thanks, that’s what I figured. Soon we will have 100mbps with the option to pay more for 1gbps

I have so many questions about Plex Cloud and I don’t see a forum for it or really any notification that it exists (with the exception of the Twitter post that notified me):How does this work? Can I sync it with my existing Plex server?
In the initial Beta there won’t be any function to sync your local PMS with Plex Cloud.
But there are several tools to keep an ACD account in-sync with local mediaDoes it work like a regular Cloud storage provider or is this a special version of cloud sync?
You upload your media to Amazon Cloud Drive, following standard Plex Naming Guides.
Cloud Sync was designed to have selected media synced to the cloud that you could watch when your Plex Media Server was offline or otherwise unavailable. As a sync service, this required original files to remain on your local storage. Plex Cloud is a full-fledged Plex Media Server located in the cloud. Your media is hosted independently of your local storage. AND Transcoding is done by servers in the cloud!Can I share this server with other people?
YES
This sounds AMAZING. I want to play with it for sure.

This is so cool. Thanks Plex for looking into offering this!!!Another question for the FAQ: Does AWS Cloud Drive count MKV files as video files. AWS Cloud Drive for $60 a year says all photos and videos. But they dont’ mention MKV’s as video files
The flat fee is for any file. MKV’s just aren’t playable by their web-based photo/video player so Amazon doesn’t count them as “video”.
File Requirements for Amazon Photos and Amazon Drive - Amazon Customer Service
Seriously going to be watching this development closely. This has so much potential!
Another question for anyone out there. Is there a Linux Amazon Drive Client? I use Linux primarily on my Plex Server, so it’d be helpful to have upload from Linux automatically.
I wonder if Plex/Cloud is going to support ecryptfs? 
Would apps like ExpandDrive (OSX/Win) work? So i wouldn’t really have to change my workflow, just point to a different folder (where movies and tv shows are moved after converting and renaming).
i wanted this for so long…
As long as it transcode with subtitles and without limitations on files and size would happy pay the 60/year if it works well
also outside US…

Amazon Cloud Drive says unlimite “photos, video, document”. If MKV’s aren’t part of the $60/year ACD drive storage fee, this is a non-starter for me.

It should work fine. Plex Cloud doesn’t care how the files get there.
So if ExpandDrive will allow you to upload to Amazon Cloud Drive then yes.

4. The obvious question, how about copyright claims? Will there be problems further down the road? Since Amazon is a content provider, can it demand a proof of content ownership in the future?
5. How reliable and safe is my data regarding any (future) Terms & Conditions breaches? Nobody wants to be in a situation where a library of multiple TB has been uploaded, shuts down the local server and at some point in the future the Amazon Drive account is terminated due to some breach and with possibly no backup, will lose its entire digital library. Is plex cloud interesting for users with very large libraries (5-10TB and more)?
Curious about answers to these. Thanks!

The question is what Amazon Cloud Drive uses Plex? S3, or te new unlimited without local folder

I’m not sure I understand the question, at least the part about unlimited without local folder
Plex Cloud links with your Amazon Drive cloud storage - whether you have the 5GB that come with Amazon Prime or you have Unlimited Amazon Drive,
Okay, the Unlimited Amazon Drive comes without an lokal folder like dropbox… not possibble to map as lokal drive, no connection possible with this Tools like Transmit oder Cyberduck. The only way is the Amazon App
If you have synology nas you’ll have beter options synching your data with ACD

Great tool, do you encrypt your data? Uploaded over a terabyte today of my collection as a backup, then see this Plex Cloud lol.
someone has received access to Plex Cloud?
If so, tell us

Plex Cloud doesn’t support playback of encrypted media. So no.

Can’t seem to visit the rclone.org website. Hopefully this is temporary. Can anyone confirm or deny an issue with rclone’s website?
