I got a lifetime pass for cheap ages ago and while the company isn't doing so well, Plex itself isn't getting any worse. Its just not getting better.
As long as that continues, then I'm fine with staying. I only really use it for Plexamp anyway.
oh I forgot about Plexamp. Its been my main music app since it also does Android auto.
It just works so well and nothing else comes close so far.
