I use Plex only for Plexamp. Not any movie or TV stuff.
Now I’m being asked to pay a higher monthly fee, even though Plex no longer includes any backend cloud streamer integration (nor Sonic Sage, which relies on that). So while I have many tens of thousands of songs in my personal library, it’s impossible to have everything, especially music I haven’t discovered yet. I can no longer use Plexamp to discover new music, and I can no longer import playlists into it and have it “fill in the blanks” with streaming songs not found in my personal library (I spent many hours creating a python script to automate this, which is now worthless).
I know you guys are “hoping to find another streaming service” to partner with or whatever, but it has been almost a year since the termination of Tidal integration was announced and we still have nothing.
Yet I’m asked to pay more. Can’t you guys at least create a “Music only” tier or something for $5/mo? And let us know if getting another streaming service on board is actually likely to happen, or if it’s a pipe dream at this point? I love Plexamp and it’s clear that you all have put a lot of love into it, but for me personally it’s not nearly as fun and interesting like it was when it had a streaming service to fill the gaps in my library and stream new music and custom playlists.
