PLEXREADER, PLEXSTORE, PLEXSYNC!
A lot of people use there tablets as E-Readers It would be awesome if plex could free up much needed disk space by hosting these files. select a zip, rar, epub, pdf,or other book file type and it downloads to you device. open using a plex made Ereader or select a Reader of your choice. each time you select a new book it can download and while your reading it plex deletes the previously selected book unless plex synced (This means more flexpass sales for the company).

A lot of people read comics as illustrated by just how many android and ios apps there are just for this. But those apps are limited to device hardware storage space unlike plex.

An unlimited amount of space for books to free up space for apps. There are people who don't know about or use plex that would buy the app just for this.

Finally for the people that say "hey its only a 50MB file just download the comic you want to read that day". One of the great features of plex is it keeps track of not just where you left off in a tv series but lets you resume at the moment you stopped watching the last episode. this feature could be referred to as "bookmarking" and a comic or book, series or one off would definitely benefit from the "BOOKmarking" feature we use on videos. lets bring all media to our media server.

PLEASE GIVE ME BOOK SUPPORT! ^_^

Update: Was in informed that plex is intagrating xbmc. If this is true they will already have full zip/rar/cbz/cbr suport. This makes epub and pdf the only files left to suport. I would still like to see a books section with or without epub and pdf to view my comics.
