Plex Is Raising The Price Of Its Lifetime Subscription By $500
As someone with an existing lifetime Plex Pass this does not really impact me, but raising the cost to $750 is just insane. If the purpose is to push people to a monthly subscription I suppose it is a step in the right direction, but they will probably end up pushing folks to free alternatives.

Pricey! Glad I to have a Lifetime sub to Plex. Awesome software!!
Plex is one of those apps I have used forever and it is mostly just "set and forget", but the cost is getting prohibitive if you are just entering. I can see folks preferring Jellyfin or some of the other open-source media servers.
