This whole thing smells of business decisions taken to maximize profits instead of giving consumers satisfaction. If people want to pay for Plex and its features, fine! But having Plex as the SOLE solution for streaming our media on the PS4 is kind of insulting. Just that it’s completely stupid to have Plex available without any other form of free, standard DLNA support. Simple DLNA support would simply allow my PS4 to access my network HDDs directly and play my content. But if, like me, you have network-attached HDDs storing all your media, it means all files are sent trough the network to your PC (Plex server), and then sent AGAIN through the network to your PS4. If your files are stored on your PC, fine.
The need to run the server app on a PC (or an expensive NAS unit that not many people may have) is only adding useless network traffic for many. It is a nice piece of software, and it provides MORE than what simple DLNA can provide. Plex brings a lot more to the table than simple DLNA support. People, don’t rant at Plex for being a paid middleware. To get more information about how the app will work and a general FAQ, please click here. In addition to the PlayStation app, a Plex Pass also gives you exclusive premium features and early access to new ones. In the future, it will be made available, for a fee, to those without a Plex Pass.
