I agree, but the 40gb limit on my phones "unlimited" plan seem to disagree with reality, as does the $30 per 500gb comcast would charge me if i use over 1.2tb....
Not saying it isnt false advertising, but its how a lot of internet service providers choose to advertise things these days.
It sounds like they banned you for excessive usage. They allow at least 1tb a month because ive used that amount regularly with them.
It is a bit misleading for them to be calling it "unlimited" tho
CRSH doing great right now though
It's not legal, its just that laws don't matter for the ruling class In the USA. It works because the only people with the ability to legally arrest Musk aren't going to do so, and any court cases can just be endlessly delayed or appealed.
Just share you idea. If all you need is some web development it cant really be that controversial.
Sunk cost is more then just money... Every reply here is some variation of "i would switch but i have all my ratings and users settings in plex already and dont know how to migrate"
Which i can understand paying because you dont have time, i just also think its foolish to pay for a service like plex when the main use case is piracy, something a company like plex clearly can not continue to support legally forever.
Eventually the big media corps will decide they need to end all library sharing options and plex will not be able to win that fight.
Its about $60 more then ive ever paid for any software, and its literally a tool for piracy, why would i pay a company that clearly want to pivot to being a second rate netflix with ads, when i can get what i need for free and not support a shitty tech company.
It was the same thing with realdebrid, its just foolish to think these companies arent going to start cracking down on any kind of "sharing" features until eventually they get removed due to pressure from the anti piracy goons.
If you got your money worth thats great but id rather direct my money to projects that arent trying to profit off pirates until they can pivot to being a legit service and wall out what actually made them good in the first place.
Its clear at this point plex is getting worse and jellfin is getting better. Almost all the replies sayibg they still use plex have a "BUT" in them about wanting to switch and being stuck because they dont know how to transfer this or that (ratings, view counts, etc), which im going to look more into later to see if i can help with.
Or sunk cost fallacy, but whatever helps you justify paying $120 for software i guess. I dont think its a black and White one size fits all thing, i just have seen this patter before with other software, and it was already happening with plex before the price increase.
I used soundiiz, it costs $5 a month but i really just needed it the one month. I exported to a csv and then downloaded it all using tidal-dl and streamrip. You can import/export across a bunch of different serciservices.
