Plex (a.k.a. Plexapp), is an open source media center for Intel-based Apple Macintosh computers, it has a 10-foot user interface design for the living-room TV. It was forked from XBMC media center software on May 21, 2008. The framework allows users to manage video, photos, podcasts, and music from a computer, optical disk, and the Internet using an Apple remote. In 2009 the developer community added the "App Store" with a growling list of plugins for online content like Hulu, Netflix, and CNN video. It is a sophisticated alternative to Apple's Front Row, similar to Windows Media Center and iTheater, with skinnable and user-configurable interface. See Less
