Uh, how about they want to make money? And they have to consistently pay their developers and other bills? Is this a serious question?

- prepend 2y agoPlex is a fork of xbmc/kodi. Did they pay those developers? We all have bills to pay. Upping prices because I want more money isn’t a very understandable reason. It’s not like we have any visibility into Plex’s costs. So it’s just as likely that the owner wants more profit than they have costs.
- carlosjobim 2y agoAll pirate TV businesses first and foremost work for their own profit. There's little reason to expect anything different for Plex.
- polski-g 2y agoWell the product was fine 10 years ago. They could have stopped development and called it feature complete.
- joshstrange 2y agoCompletely untrue. Things that were added in the last 10 years off the top of my head: * 10 years of updates to the iOS/Android/GoogleTV/AppleTV/Mac/Windows/etc clients (that doesn't come for free) * OpenSubtitle search built in * Intro detection * Credit detection * Watch Together * LiveTV/DVR support * PlexAmp * PlexDash And more that I'm not thinking of. You can say "I don't care about those features", which is a tired take IMHO, but there are plenty of features they have added to keep up with the online streaming platforms.
