As long as they honor the lifetime part I'm not bothered. I bought my over a decade ago for about $25-30 on sale.

Seems like a big risk, how many companies have there been who offered such a thing but then went under not many years later and no longer could make good on it?

We have Rokus on our TVs and ditched Plex as soon as a Jellyfin app became available

My goodness, I have my pass that I bought years ago for like €35, if I had to pay that I wouldn't even do it as a joke, I just hope they don't end up trying to squeeze more out of those who already have one, I've been trying jellyfin anyway just in case

Fuck you plex. Ditched you a long time ago and it was obviously the right choice. If anyone gets money it's Emby. Yes I know about Jellyfin but it just sucks with HDR. Totally.

trying to squeeze as many people for the current price as possible. will probably run deep sales close to today's price in the future.
