Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.

I tried Jellyfin probably 2 years ago and it was fine but Plex is just "plug n play" in regard to my family setting it up themselves with little help from me.

Plexamp is the only way I stream music too so that's a big reason why I won't move yet.

Navidrome plus Arpeggi, Narjo or Symphonium are pretty much equivalent

“Pretty much” doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.

That’s a lot of apps to replace the functionality of one. Pass.

You only need the server and one app

Ok, which app for iOS replaces ALL Plexamp functionality?
