I’ve got Jellyfin up and running right now on a DS620Slim NAS and it’s running pretty good so far. I’ve seen a lot of people say they prefer Plex over Jellyfin. What are the main advantages to plex?

The $160 is a lifetime pass... I pay $20/mo for Netflix. That's $240/year. So, if you think it's worth it for even one year, compared to something like Netflix, then it's a pretty solid value proposition.

I bought the lifetime pass in 2014 when it was $75. Been more than happy with that decision.

Same. I don't recall the pricing but I signed up roughly around that time. I haven't regretted it.
