Of course the streaming service rotate their content. That's kinda the entire point.

Preservation is important but an amateur that puts a movie on their Plex/jellyfin server isn't important.

It might be important to them, so why judge?

I'm just doubting their motives, I'm not judging.

Piracy is great and so is preservation. It's just very unlikely that OP is doing actual preservation (remember that they talk about top gear and not some underground music album or something)

It's important if they share the file, too.

Yeah, obviously that's the actual reason.
