Do I need special hardware or a Plex Pass subscription?
Our free streaming does not require any special hardware. All you need is your supported Plex player app. As mentioned, it is a free service, available to any user in a supported region, and does not require any Plex Pass subscription.
How is this different from the Live TV/DVR premium feature?
Our Plex Pass subscribers can optionally connect a compatible tuner device and antenna to their Plex Media Server to watch and record over-the-air broadcasts available at their location. That is not required for this free streaming, though. They’re two different features, even though both are related to accessing “live TV” broadcasts. Related Page: Live TV & DVR

Can my family watch this content?
Absolutely. Our ad-supported Live TV streaming is available to all users for free.
