I’ve used Plex for a few years now and have enjoyed it. I wanted to support the project financially so before the price went up I purchased a Plex Pass without really checking into what it does. So far I see not difference in any way. We was 90% on the TV using Roku. I watch 10% of the time on my Linux Kubuntu desktop. I didn’t receive anything other than a Welcome to Plex Pass email. Am I supposed to do something to get value from this purchase? Thanks, Mark ---
