Setting up PLEX server

[Travis Ballstadt]

for plex, which price option are you guys using?

Plex Pass (Premium)

• Monthly: $6.99
• Yearly:$69.99
  • Lifetime: $249.99

Remote Watch Pass (New)

• Monthly:$1.99
  • Yearly: $19.99

Found the below notes when searching pricing...

The free version of Plex allows for local streaming of personal media and includes ad-supported on-demand and Live TV content.

A Plex Pass is now required for the server owner to enable free remote streaming for themselves and others they've authorized.

Previously, there was a one-time fee to unlock the mobile apps; this is no longer the case for local streaming, with that limitation now removed for local network playback.

The Remote Watch Pass does not include other Plex Pass benefits, such as DVR functionality or downloads, according to PCWorld.

I have a lifetime pass. They have sales frequently. I think I paid $99 for mine. Watch for one this holiday season.

Thanks. Will look at xmas sales.

Are there any alternatives for remote watch via plex? Or is Plex the best option for viewing your video's when you are outside?
