:doc:`Plex <serve/plex>` is the centerpiece of my media center software. It provides access to pretty much all of my media in a nice, polished interface. That said, :doc:`Asset UPnP <serve/asset>` is my primary mechanism for accessing music.

I use :doc:`MakeMKV <rip/makemkv>` for ripping disc contents into digital format, then :doc:`Handbrake <convert/handbrake>` for converting the ripped contents into a compatible format.

I use :doc:`PhotoDirector <manage/photodirector>` for organizing my photos and :doc:`DVD Profiler <manage/dvdprofiler>` for managing my DVD collection.

My digital music is in :doc:`iTunes <manage/itunes>` but I keep track of the combined digital and disc music collection using :doc:`Music Collector <manage/musiccollector>`.

My backup solution is :doc:`iDrive <system/idrive>`, which handles off-site backup. That, combined with the File History backup in Windows 10 (which also gets backed up by :doc:`iDrive <system/idrive>`), has me covered.
