Emby already went closed source, it will do the same.

Maybe? But I will still have my media and will see what is the best alternative if that happens. Maybe my WD NAS software will also go to seed and I will have to roll my own NAS. But what do I gain by giving up on the best experience now out of fear that this experience might degrade later? It's not like watching movies takes a huge learning curve. In the meantime, there are some incentives for Emby to keep their users happy and recommending their stuff, like I just did. If they don't, it's their loss.
