    I’m enjoying my Plex one and Nexus Mods. The latter one was in 2013 and cost me $40. Today the yearly subscription is $70.

      Yep. I bought Plex pass lifetime for $60 a while back. It came with plexamp which allowed me stream music to my phone.

      Which after Google play music was murdered I vowed never to do a streaming service again.

      So that was worth it.

      Say what you want about the direction Plex is going currently… But as of now it 100% meets my needs.

      Scooping up a lifetime sub to Nexus, back when they were still available, might have been one of my best online moves. If a game can be modded, I will be modding it - I get SO much value from that one-time investment.

      You can get Plex lifetime for around 80 USD during their occasional sales. I bought a lifetime sub for ≈80 USD on 2020-11-30

        You’re not paying for mods though, you’re paying for faster downloads and no ads.

          Also you’re supporting modders through Donation Points. Creators get real money proportional to mod download count. The mods are still free, to clarify.

            Oh yeah I mean, it’s expensive. But if you’re very much into modding and like me don’t like your gbit download speed to be limited to 3mbit or whatever the free thing is… I get paying it.

            I wouldn’t pay for what yearly costs now, but the 40eur lifetime price 10 years ago sure wasn’t a bad deal.
