Plex
Plex is a free streaming service that includes on-demand access to 50,000+ movies and TV shows. The service also offers 300+ free-to-stream live TV channels in 193 countries. Users can also connect Plex to their computers to stream and share any media they have on their hard drives.
While Plex isn’t exactly the same as linear TV, it offers 192 channels including 24 news channels. You can also stream free movies with the service. Users like Plex because it’s customizable and free.
In addition to ad-supported content, Plex also offers a premium tier, Plex Pass. You can subscribe for $4.99/month, $39.99/year, or $119.99 for a lifetime subscription to get access to additional features, including the option to record OTA channels to download and replay.
In April, Plex surpassed 25 million viewers. At the time, the company had raised $50 million in funding to further expand its offerings and features.
