The upcoming $500 price hike applies only to new Lifetime Plex Pass purchases. Current Lifetime subscribers will continue to enjoy all their existing benefits. Additionally, Plex will maintain the pricing for its regular subscriptions, which remain at $6.99 monthly or $69.99 annually after the deadline.
How much would you consider paying for a Lifetime Plex Pass?

When Plex first announced the price increase in May, it mentioned the possibility of discontinuing the Lifetime Pass due to a preference for recurring subscriptions that provide a more stable revenue source. Ultimately, it chose to retain the one-time purchase option at a significantly inflated price.
The reaction from readers was not very positive. In a survey conducted after Plex’s pricing announcement, most respondents indicated they would rather transfer their media collections to another platform instead of buying a Lifetime Pass.
However, if you’ve determined that Plex is your go-to platform, purchasing before July 1 will save you $500. Delay until after the deadline, and you’ll face paying three times more for the same Lifetime Plex Pass.
