Last week, Plex released a public beta of Cloud Sync, a feature for PlexPass subscribers that, essentially, lets Plex users turn online storage services like Dropbox and Google Drive into Plex servers for those times when a primary Plex server is offline.

Plex Cloud is a premium feature available through a Plex Pass subscription. Plex Cloud is the easiest way to get started with your own Plex server in seconds, and given the response we’ve seen (and the massive pool of people requesting invites to our beta program), we’re thrilled to announce that all Plex Pass users can now take advantage of this amazing service. It’s been an incredible ride these last few months, with the Cloud team working across four continents to get things finalized for our public launch. After four months of development and testing, Plex shared today that it’s finally ready to officially launch Plex Cloud to the public. Last fall Plex introduced its new Plex Cloud feature as an invite-only beta for some users.
