I want to unlock the ability to view content on my mobile device. I can do that with a one-time purchase (payed with google opinion rewards) or with a subscription. I want to unlock the ability for my entire family though, across multiple devices. Do I have to pay the "one-time payment" for every device? If so, the plex subscription might be worth it. Is there any other major benefit to having a plex subscription?

I used to have one. Then I asked myself why I was paying someone else to access my own stuff.

you're not wrong.. but you gotta give credit where credit is due. Plex does a good job of having a client on every platform. Telling family and friends "search for plex on your devices app store" is a whole hell of a lot easier than having them jump thru all the hoops that it takes for jellyfin to work.

This is the main reason I will continue to use Plex over jellyfin
