It’s worth 750, which is about ten years worth of yearly subscriptions. Plex is 16 years old and the Lindy effect applies.

- babypuncher 5mo agoThere is so much good free software out there for playing music that I have a hard time believing PlexAmp is worth $750. They know it's not worth it either, they just want to push more users to the monthly subscription for that sweet ARR.
- HDBaseT 5mo agoAs a long time Plex member, on Lifetime (originally purchased for <$100), PlexAmp is great although not worth anywhere close to $750. If you're paying $750 you might as well use Roon like the rest of the audiophile freaks. Jellyfin has a Music Server although a bit limited compared to Plexamp. Navidrome is a Music Server with similar functionalities. Symfonium is a Music Player which can connect to various Music Servers like Navidrome, Plexamp, or just files on the network.
