Streaming your own media shouldn’t come with a subscription. Here’s why Plex users are frustrated — and why Jellyfin might be a better bet.

    I have paid for lifetime years ago and I’m still using it. They may introduce new features and try to entice me to pay for them, but so far no one is trying to cut me off from what I paid for

      Isn’t that kinda exactly what the OP was saying with their comment about MBAs realising they have non-paying users?

      I don’t run Plex so I don’t know, but from your comment it sounds like the Plex Pass isn’t “all past, present and future premium features”?

      Or were you theorising about a future where they do ask you to pay more?

        I’m not missing any features I got when I paid for it (I believe they’ve added some), so no complaints from me.

      Just wait that “lifetime” package will end and they will say we need your money every month now, sooner rather than later.
