Nowadays I'm practically using plexamp far more often than I watch my own video content on Plex. I started using Plex for music about 6 months ago and plexamp has been such a powerhouse of a music app in ways I never expected. I really appreciate the specific DJs they give you with sonic analysis. I've realized it's also made me enjoy buying CDs again, which are especially cheap these days!

I do, but I am bitter that my server doesn't allow access to plexamp for anyone but me the server manager.

I personally bought Plex Lifetime Pass for my family use, I would not have bought it just for personal use. The only outcome of plexamp behind pass for every single user is that I get less out of my server, my family are never going to pay A$6.00 per month to rent a music app with only my music.

I also recently found out that none of my newer users can even download from my server, which wasn't the case when I bought my lifetime plan. Not that downloads work at all.

At least with Symfonium I can buy the app outright, if all my family members were on Android we'd go that option.

You can make user profiles for your family members so they fall under your plex pass. Worked for my house so far.
