With Jellyfin, you maintain complete ownership and control of your media library
without relying on third-party services or subscriptions for core functionality.

You pay by the hour for the software running on your chosen Amazon EC2 instance type. This listing bundles Jellyfin Media Server on Ubuntu 22.04 with the underlying compute size you select. Pricing scales with the instance you pick, not with tiers or feature sets. Smaller instances like t3.nano or t2.micro carry lower hourly rates, while larger compute, memory, storage, and GPU instances such as m5.metal, x2iedn.32xlarge, or g5.48xlarge cost more per hour. You run the server only while the instance runs, so you pay for actual usage hours.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does the hourly rate cover, and what do I pay separately?
The hourly rate covers the software license for Jellyfin Media Server preinstalled on Ubuntu 22.04. The underlying Amazon EC2 compute is billed by AWS separately. Your invoice reflects both the software charge and the EC2 infrastructure charge for the instance type you select.
Am I charged when my instance is stopped or powered off?
Software charges accrue only while the instance runs. A fully stopped instance stops the hourly software meter. You may still owe AWS storage fees for attached volumes while stopped, but the software license meters running hours only.
How do I change cost after launch if I need more capacity?
You pick one EC2 instance type per deployment, and its size sets your hourly rate. To change cost, you launch a different instance type. Moving to larger compute, memory, storage, or GPU instances raises the hourly rate; smaller instances lower it. The change is not automatic.
