I know that it is possible to add users to your Plex home, but its not an ideal option for many. I feel that I have supported Plex and the users that I personally paid for Plex Pass for are not able to use it.

It isn’t a reasonable expectation for any of my users to spend 50% the price of Spotify for my limited music library.

    I know people love them some Plexamp and I totally agree that it’s a very well designed app. However, music is just a nice to have thing for me. Between free options and good inexpensive paid options music isn’t as big of a need as tv/movies for me and my users.

    I have a decent amount of music on my server and my users have listened to exactly 0 songs. Not sure if Plexamp would change that.

      I actually have YouTube Premium via Turkish pricing & Spotify ReVanced, so it’s not the access to the songs, its the songs those applications choose to play for me.

      Both Spotify & YouTube Premium rarely give me songs from major bands anymore. Radio/Autoplay is mostly filled with cheaper indie artists and not necessarily the good ones.

      Since self-hosting and reaching around 700 albums, My autoplay radio’s are significantly higher quality, I’m expecting that to only get better as I rediscover more artists.
