I want to unlock the ability to view content on my mobile device. I can do that with a one-time purchase (payed with google opinion rewards) or with a subscription. I want to unlock the ability for my entire family though, across multiple devices. Do I have to pay the “one-time payment” for every device? If so, the plex subscription might be worth it. Is there any other major benefit to having a plex subscription?
Most benefits require both the server user and the end user to have Plex Pass.
Personally I prefer Emby or even Jellyfin over Plex.
That’s not true. Only the server needs to have Plexpass to offer downloads and whatnot to regular user.
Yeah home users get all the perks that the server owner gets.
Does skip intro not require everyone to have pass? Yes it does, https://support.plex.tv/articles/skip-content/
Also app installs requiring either a 1time unlock per user or the end user to have plex pass? Yes it does
That’s not “most” benefits. The most sought after benefits do not require plexpass.
