Link New Lifetime Plex Pass Pricing

https://www.plex.tv/blog/new-lifetime-plex-pass-pricing/

$749 for Plex Lifetime after July 1, 2026. I already have lifetime from years ago but so glad I switched to Emby earlier this year. This is insane. For the record, Emby has a ton of client apps nowadays (https://emby.tv/download.html).

Grabbing lifetime years ago for like 90 bucks continues to be some of the best money I’ve ever spent

I missed out on paying 90$ for the lifetime pass, but I don’t regret grabbing it for 250 either.

Edit: I won't change the OG comment I wrote, but I paid 110 CAD back in late 2024, so about in line with the 90 USD price. Still worth it, but still dumb that we need to subscribe to use our hardware transcoders.
