Ya, that's the really obvious take. That's teh way you do biz these days.
Like, that's what's gonna happen to all those 'lifetime' Plex accounts. Sure, you still have access to 'Plex-classic'. But you don't get any of the new Plextastic services ... unless you want to pay the $1,999 upgrade fee ...

If I get to use the exact product I paid for a lifetime account for forever that does kinda sound like exactly what I paid for.

Trust me. You need Plextastic. Its got all the cool new stuff. Just a small fee.
You will come around.
