Plex has 20 million users to Netflix 150million despite Netflix's far higher price. The public says Netflix is far more convenient.

It’s a different audience.

Despite UX improvements to Plex, and running a Plex server, it is still a fairly technical endeavor. However, that doesn’t mean the millions more of people who have Netflix, but not Plex, do not dream of a day where simply all video media is in one place.

Almost anyone I introduce to Plex is simply mesmerized and the growing community of shared Plex servers shows that it is taking off. The continued fragmentation of all of these exclusive streaming services is just going to drive more and more people back to DIY solutions.
