When Plex first started, we were movie and TV fans who wanted to make something great for people like us. We chose to offer a Lifetime subscription early on because we knew many of our customers would rather pay a higher one-time fee for software that they can depend on every day.

We’ve considered eliminating the Lifetime Plex Pass in the past, given that recurring subscriptions help us sustain long-term development, but we know it’s still a valuable option for many in our community. So instead of retiring it, we’re keeping it available at a price that reflects the real, ongoing value of the software we’re committed to building and maintaining for years to come.

the only thing i can think of re plex is sometimes their “live tv channels” have shows i forget about like come dine with me or mst3k. etc.

i can get some streams like that on a roku fine.

does jellyfin allow for “streaming channels?”

I think you can just try with PlutoTV, it's free ad-supported streaming and I think Plex uses them as a source for some content.
