If you have multiple media apps. Say radarr, sonarr. You will thank yourself later if you set up all of those in docker-compose, save the configuration to git, mount the storage to something like /media in the container. That means next time you have to set this up again it will automatically be ready.
I had previous work experience, but setting up containers vs VMs was way faster. The permissions of the media between multiple apps was never messed with which saved me from frustrating issues between applications.
Pro-tip. Don’t try kids movies or shows, scratched up enough that they don’t rip.
