Slightly off-topic, but I have been interested in setting up Plex (or similar) in my homeserver but never figured out a good workflow or source to add movies/shows to it? Are people generally just torrenting, or are there DRM-free stores that I do not know exist? Or if there is an efficient workflow for ripping blurays?

I personally use private trackers and sonarr/radarr apps to manage the content. You could probably use public trackers if you want.

There is a nice docker image that runs deluge and wireguard. Works great with my VPN. Keeps a port open and everything. Has the firewall set to prevent using anything other than the vpn. It’s also nice I don’t have to play with my servers network settings as it’s all in the container.

I don't believe anywhere is selling DRM free movies. iTunes DRM used to be pretty easy to crack, which may be legally piracy in some jurisdictions but at least for me I felt morally pretty ok with it. Bluray ripping is not too hard these days either, you basically need MakeMKV and a bluray drive with the right firmware (which is actually most "LG" drives).

And yeah, plenty of piracy also.

I don't know of a store that offers DRM free movies for general content, but there are places you can get very specific things DRM free. RiffTrax is DRM free for example.
