Plex Changes [Resolved. Please Read]

UPDATE: 25th March 2025 – I have paid for a lifetime Plex Pass. No changes are required by anyone else. Podgeflix will continue as it has been for the last few years. If you would like to ‘tip’ me, please contact me.

Hey everyone.

Plex recently announced that it is increasing the price of it’s Plex Pass, a subscription to unlock very optional features is being increased from $120 for a lifetime subscription to $250.

Additionally, and more importantly, they are locking the ability to allow people to stream from the server behind Plex Pass.

This affects Podgeflix!

By April 29th 2025, one of the following must happen:

  • Either I have to pay for a Plex Pass, which will allow everyone to use Podgeflix.
  • Or you can pay for Plex Pass yourself and have access to Podgeflix.

This is enshittification by Plex and as of right now, I am not inclined to pay for this Plex Pass. That does not mean that I will NOT be paying this.

I will decide in the coming days as to what my decision will be.
