Worth it. Plex is great and it's worth supporting the company even if you don't use the extra features.

many features a great though: hardware transcode, skip intro, remote download for trips etc

In 2016 I paid $120 for Lifetime.

I've gotten my money's worth and then some. It's a very well supported platform that has kept up with my growing library, including stellar Dolby Vision and atmos support. I've got live television connected and I've got easy access to all my content no matter where my family travels.

Love plex.

Loved Plex before and got the lifetime pass. It has the best gui of any media mgt software out there.

However, recent upgrades especially shield TV, they have taken away ability to use external player like VLC. Playing 4k movies on shield 2017 is a struggle with the crap ExoPlayer that you are forced to use. It always transcodes and I got tired of trying to figure out the codecs. VLC on the other hand is a beast and plays anything you throw at it in outstanding quality...it's just isn't as clean as Plex.

Can it manage/organize the content of hard drive connected locally? I've Shield with couple of external hard drives connected. But am unable to "look" contents from Plex but able to do it thru Kodi (set content).

Fk Plex.
Go with Jellyfin.

Plex messes with it every 4 to 6 months so you have to redo the metadata and collection groupings again. Metadata sites drop Plex because they make money from them.
Months ago, Plex informed everybody who has an account that they were "hacked" so they advice everyone to change their passwords. Which btw, is a great time to start pushing their livestream channels that has ad$.

Jellyfin is a whole lot better, you dont have to register with them so your info won't get sold/"hacked".
Jellyfin clients can be installed on android, ios, firetv, even roku!
If you know how to figure out your own ip, you can access your own server remotely. That means you dont have to pay anybody to access your own files.

I would hold off. One the main core paid features is the ability to watch and record live TV. They currently are dragging their feet to support atsc 3.0 which has been out a few years now.

Quote from ElatedField148 :
Wish they'd add

You'd probably be better off with something like PhotoPrism [photoprism.app] for handling photos. I've never used Plex for photos but that's not really it's main use case and it probably won't work quite as well as something like PhotoPrism that's really designed for it.
Interesting option even though I have Plex, but all I see is a recurring subscription.

Can anyone confirm if intro skip works for downloaded content on a Linux host with a Roku client?

What is the advantage of running the server on a Shield vs the native Samsung app?

Those are both clients.

You need to run the server on Window, Linus, MAC, or NAS/Docker. FYI.

What was the trick?
Set your location to certain countries and you'd pay less. I forget which, but it would knock the price down. Don't remember it getting as low as $33, but hypothetically it was possible to get it for like $60.

This is invaluable if you subscribe to a "Plex library" like myself.
I subscribe to one myself and can stream whatever I want there. Why would this be beneficial?

would it allow me to download the remote content ( not on my server) to my android tablet for trips?

I currently have Plex installed on my FireTV. If I get Plex Pass now, would I be able to uninstall and activate it on AppleTV once I upgrade?
Don't need to uninstall. It'll just work
