Today we’re announcing an important pricing update. Starting July 1, 2026, the price of a new Lifetime Plex Pass will increase to $749.99 USD.
When Plex first started, we were movie and TV fans who wanted to make something great for people like us. We chose to offer a Lifetime subscription early on because we knew many of our customers would rather pay a higher one-time fee for software that they can depend on every day.
We’ve considered eliminating the Lifetime Plex Pass in the past, given that recurring subscriptions help us sustain long-term development, but we know it’s still a valuable option for many in our community. So instead of retiring it, we’re keeping it available at a price that reflects the real, ongoing value of the software we’re committed to building and maintaining for years to come.
Dude, do you have a mom? Have you met a boomer?
Yep.
Ghosted her, and the rest of my family, after they became MAGA nutjobs.
… Are they paying you for this valuable IT service you provide them?
They can always go back to Netflix or Hulu or whatever.
… unless you just do full stack, frontend+backend, custom software deployments… for free…?
I don’t do shit for Boomers, for free.
Tell em to go buy a lawn mower and mow lawns to afford another enterprising local IT expert’s services, or maybe they can introduce themselves to the president of internet piracy with a firm handshake or something, I’m sure that’ll work.
If they throw a temper tantrum, remind them the full term is Baby Boomer.
