For the past few years I have been running a tretflix server. Before that I had hacked together my own ubuntu server with the various things I needed (sabnzbd, sickbeard, couchpotato, newznab+, etc). Well with tretflix going away I am looking to roll my own setup again. I currently have 4.5TB of media so I am pretty much stuck with keeping everything "in house" although if there was a way to use my unlimited amazon cloud drive to store my media I could possibly move to a VPS.
My main question is this: what would be be best OS to build my server on? I am comfortable with both Linux and Windows equally. I just have not been keeping up with all the advancements in this area a lot so I am not 100% sure if one os has an advantage over the other now.
I do plan to have my media downloader box (sabnzbd, sickbeard/sickrage, couchpotato, etc) separate from my plex server this time if that really matters.
