This is an interesting take, thanks for describing it. I think most people, myself included, would find your setup a little odd, but I completely understand why you're doing it. It would make many (most?) home media servers a little hobbled, especially if you wanted to stream content to mobile devices outside of the home, but it sounds as if this is more of a replacement for the old pile of set-top boxes for you, rather than a general service to all your devices, is that a fair interpretation?

Yes, what I've got is like a streaming service, but at much higher quality and with a selection that doesn't rotate out as rights lapse.

The stuff that Jellyfin would provide - being able to watch from a device using just a web browser and no client install - is nice-to-have, not need-to-have.
