Plex Pass Features:
  • DVR Recording of Live TV
    • Hook a compatible tuner and digital antenna up to your local Plex Media Server to let you watch and record free, over-the-air broadcasts available in your area. Record content into your library to gain all the benefits of other personal media: beautiful metadata, access it anywhere and any time, and more. You can, of course, also watch content live, wherever you are, on tons of devices.
  • Downloads
    • Use Downloads to load copies of your content on your phone or tablet so you can use it when you don't have internet access. Downloads also helps make sure you always have the next episode of your favorite show ready for your commute. You can also Download content to your Windows or Mac desktop Plex app.
  • Plexamp & Plex Labs
    • Some of the projects coming out of Plex Labs may be available only to Plex Pass subscribers. For instance, the "Plexamp" music player (Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, Linux) as well as the "Plex Dash" server management app (Android, iOS) both require active Plex Pass subscriptions to use.
  • Skip Movies and TV Show Credits
    • Save precious time by skipping over credits in your Movies and TV shows. Your server can analyze movies and episodes to detect credits and give you back precious minutes when you're binging your favorite series or movies.
  • Skip TV Show Intros
    • Save precious time by skipping over intros in your TV shows. Your server can analyze shows to detect intro segments and give you back precious minutes when you're binging your favorite series.
  • Premium Music Features
    • Enjoy better artwork and artist bios, automatic lyrics from LyricFind, loudness leveling, sweet fades, visualizers, and more.
  • Hardware-Accelerated Streaming
    • When using a compatible device or processor on the Plex Media Server, subscribers can make use of hardware acceleration when content needs to be converted (transcoded) during streaming. This can be faster and more power-efficient for users.
  • Custom Sharing Restrictions
    • Create customized restriction settings when sharing with family and close, personal friends. Restrict based on content ratings or your own custom labels.
  • Bandwidth and Transcoding Limits
    • Plex Pass subscribers have additional control over processor usage and network/bandwidth usage when streaming.
  • Early Access
    • Users with an active Plex Pass subscription often get early access to new features or apps. For instance, both Chromecast support and Plex Home Theater were available to Plex Pass subscribers prior to being released for all users.

Plex is a server for personal media management of TV and movie libraries of media you own, the other things are just ways things they've introduced to add revenue to the company, but I just turn most of them off. Plex pass is just for things that make the core experience of Plex better for their power users like hardware transcoding, adding trailers and extras to the movies in your libraries, syncing content to mobile/tablets, etc.
I also use it as a DVR for OTA TV and to stream sports on my local channels when I'm not home.
You're buying the right to complain about features you didn't ask for! 😅 JK if you use the service you should support it.

What exactly is this? It looks like they rent movies and are a central hub for other streaming services like Disney+. Does the membership include subscriptions and rentals or does the membership only allow you to access those services for a fee?

Will this support their new photos backup they recently started trying? Is there a sale around Black Friday as well?

I started messing with free plex a few weeks ago, enjoying so far just not sure if I'll upload my dvds to it but I'd love to break free from iCloud for photos.m

I wish they supported NFL, blackout games are rough sometimes!

Seems with everything online and on various streaming services... unless you heavily torrent it just doesn't seem as useful anymore.

Unless you really like to repeatedly watch old stuff over and over.

10 years ago when there was a pretty big dollar barrier to watch things this was great.
I also use it as a DVR for OTA TV and to stream sports on my local channels when I'm not home.

Thank you, my dude. Been waiting on this offer. Initially, I didn't get the value but didn't take long before I became a fan.

Out of curiosity, for an average user, what can Plex do that Jellyfin can't? For someone that just needs a UI to serve my media, Jellyfin has been fantastic

Uh, yeah, if you're willing to pay all of the streaming services I guess Plex wouldn't be that useful?

Definitely worth it if you're using the DVR with an OTA tuner. DVR has improved measurably in the last ~5 years (I still have some stability issues but I feel like this might be my tuner, not Plex).

It also lets you avoid paying the one-time fee to use the Android/Apple apps.

Lastly, it looks like the intro/credit detection and skip is a Plex Pass exclusive feature. This works great and is pretty useful, as well.

The only negative I can say is that lifetime Plex Pass has frequently been offered between $70 and $90. Some of those were targeted email offers though. I got mine for $79, years ago.
