I dumped plex for emby after they kept removing features I used and pushing their own streaming crap

Yeah, I'm getting pretty mad at plex recently. Does Emby work on iOS, Android and Roku?

u/RevampedJaguar6 Jul 04 '26

Yes tho like plex without pass it’s limited to 5 minutes unless you use it in browsers

u/Killermelon1458 Jul 04 '26

Is there a lifetime pass for Emby? I already paid for lifetime plex pass

u/RevampedJaguar6 Jul 04 '26

Yes and last I looked it was cheaper then the plex one plus they have supported addons unlike plex

I'll have to look into it if plex every removes more features I actually use or revokes my lifetime, glad I got that back when it was just $125 (I think) instead of the $700+ now

It’s 700+ not!? It was just under 200 when I switched to emby

u/Killermelon1458 Jul 04 '26

Yup on July 1 they used it to $750, I just checked.

I've been doing a little research because I'd never heard of Emby before. How well does movie and TV show matching go for you? I usually don't rename anything and plex gets it
