I was chatting with a few friends about the concept of a dedicated device to host your family media. I'll probably end up building this for myself at some point. And if the project lives up to its vision I'll share.

After searching a bit it seems many stitch together their own solution at home. And others use cloud exclusively. Seems like a nice big problem to solve.

Many companies have tried this in the past: make sure you make different mistakes from those predecessors.

That's interesting - could you share some of the more notable companies? Why do you suspect they failed?

Sounds like a fun project more than anything, I'll explore it.
