The new social features it just announced probably won’t make that price look reasonable, but they do at least suggest Plex is investing some of the massive extra revenue it’s hoping to bring in. As reported by TechCrunch, Plex is rolling out a batch of social and discovery features aimed at making the platform more of a place to discuss and discover new movies and TV shows. The new tools include Discussions, Lists, Match Score, and Alerts.
