That price increase is affecting more than just the cost of the subscriptions.

They are offering a free bonus that might salve some of the price increase wound.

That is supposed to launch when therebuilt mobile appgoes live later this year.

Looking more like a streaming service

The removal of remote play from the free option is disappointing.

In the last couple of years Plex has been trying to become more akin tostandard streaming services.

It has added public profiles and social features like Discover Together.

Max

Yup, even in the free version which I currently use.
