[Share] Remote streaming changes you need to know
Posted: 02 May 2025, 03:09
I just received the following email from Plex (bold and underline is mine):
How typical for a formerly free service changing to a paid service.As of April 29, 2025, we’re changing how remote streaming works for personal media libraries, and it will no longer be a free feature on Plex. Going forward, you’ll need a Plex Pass, or our newest subscription offering, Remote Watch Pass, to stream personal media remotely.
As a server owner, if you elect to upgrade to a Plex Pass, anyone with access to your server can continue streaming your server content remotely as part of your subscription benefits. Not sure which option is best for you? Check out our plans below to learn more.
As always, thanks for your continued support.
Sincerely,
Your Friends at Plex
