Netflix Is Phasing Out Its Ad-Free Basic Plan, But At What Cost? - IGN The Fix: Entertainment
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 авг 2024
- After raising its subscription prices for its premium tier last year, Netflix is now planning on getting rid of its Basic plan for subscribers entirely. The company is continuing its password sharing crackdown and doing away with its $11.99 ad-free option. That means the ad-free tier will now be limited to Standard and Premium. And as we reported with its previous price hikes, if you have the premium subscription plan, you’ll be paying $23 dollars a month in the U.S. With the lowest priced ad-free subscription plan being $12 dollars a month. Those tiers saw a $2 dollar increase from their previous monthly fees. Netflix’s move to an ad-supported subscription model might be inspired by RUclips, whose videos are laden with 2 sometimes 3 ads in a row before you get to the content you want to watch. If you don’t have an ad-blocker installed, of course. Regardless, #Netflix obviously sees the value in an ad-supported model which is likely increasing revenue for the streaming giant.

Pirating has never sounded better
Exactly
FR
With lack of physical media, they're practically forcing us to.
@@Meh-el1ejthe sailing has never stopped lmao
😂😂😂
The whole point of Netflix was not to be like tv lmao
You people hadn't realized that cable never truly left us! It just took on a different form
That's not even funny.
You lmao to yourself
What dummy laughs at their own comment like some sad schmuck?
Tell that to Paramount+, Disney+, Hulu even, etc…..
@@karlsingh9076 truth
And people wonder why media gets pirated
Isn't this like the 10th price hike/increase in the past 3 years?
Netflix needs to stop gatekeeping 4K resolution it's disgusting
Netflix is now Cable TV.
They have lost the value proposition they started out with.
Greed is one hell of a drug, when inflation rises, everything else out there wants a piece of that drug
Physical media and DRM-free digital sound better and better by the day.
It never stopped for me.
Its prominence was sadly under appreciated.
What's DRM?

It just never ends!
At this point people might as well switch back to cabel.
I’ve been getting dvds at the library… free and legal
Public libraries >>>>>>
Same here! Love it
Just more corporate greed.
Do what you gotta do netflix, ill just move back to torrenting
You dont have the right to every movie/series that is not available in your country
@@ashokathegreat4534 it's not about available content? Besides, you can just use a vpn to get around that.
@@ashokathegreat4534yes u do
They have infinite supplies of money from all over the world, so theres literally no reason for this except complete spite for its audience.
Infinite supply of money? When they're in 15B debt and just made a 4B deal with the WWE?
It’s greed and poor money handling.
They spent A LOT of money to keep friends and Seinfeld on their lineup for awhile so bad decisions, they deserve it@@bizzy214
Piracy is the only option at this point. If you actually want to view a wide array of videos. I'd prefer to do it legally and support artists, but the fragmentation and price hiking and more ads is getting ridiculous.
If my family starts getting sexy time ads because of my anime history I’m going to be pissed
Been pirating since the share block and if if anyone thinks it's hard it's not, don't let these major corporations take your hard earned money when they do things like this
You just admitted to being a theif and the company is the issue?!?! 😂😂😂😂
@@LopezBOT90 these companies are the true thieves
@@LopezBOT90 Yes.
@@LopezBOT90My client has done nothing wrong
@@LopezBOT90so many people are admitting that because they've been raising the price every year and for sure those prices will continue going up, viewers are not the problem Netflix greed is. So they left us no choice, what are they going to do about it?....
Nothing exactly 🤷♂️🤫
Prices are going up more🙄
Best economy right?
Ive cancelled Amazon due to this, if Netflix brings it to the UK im gone from there too
Cancel my Netflix subscription
In the word of a guy wearing straw hat "I'M GOING TO BE KING OF THE PIRATE!"
Might as well go back to buying full DVD sets
Absolutely. Nothing more infuriating than when they ditch your series mid-binge, making you wish you just bought it that one time in the first place. The fact you can buy the whole of Breaking Bad or The X-Files permanently for £50 can actually be better value anyway than spending the same or more over that time to ‘borrow’ them for a few months.
If lots of people canceled them like bud light they'd walk backwards 😂
cancelled netflix two years ago and have never missed it since. just do it, y’all
Don't lie. You just stopped getting it free from someone else. 😂
Done!
Cancel time
Netflix getting real greedy
Pirating and physical media will become a popular option again for people who are sick of "convenience" when there's so many subscriptions at this point and scattered content, how can you keep supporting it.
Amazon Prime has Hazbin Hotel ❤ and is cheaper
Also adding ads.@@markoantonijemandic469
@@markoantonijemandic469lol cheaper for now
Disgusting greed.
The best part of Netflix is to watch ads, so no, thank you
Well, goodbye Netflix app & hello Kodi!
Already not worth it
Netflix is bout to be in the cable stratosphere 🤦🏾♂️😵💫😂😂😂😂
Isn't that basically youtube but movies only?
So we are slowly going back to regular television 🤣
Time to get physical media.
a pirate is free
Whelp time for everyone to learn how plex works
This just makes the news of WWE (RAW) being exclusive to Netflix next year more gut wrenching...
Netflix sees record profits ..increases prices.
Is it true that the adverts version has 10% less content than the standard ones?
How Netflix became big: cheap and convenient.
Now it's neither one. soooo... back to pirating
Pirate version has no ads and 1080p already
Bye Netflix.
Okay use another service
Companies are getting too greedy and overworking their employees. They are due for the government to come in and put the hammer down. However, for some reason, it seems the government is on their side this time around
Companies and Governments are two sides of the same coin
So now Gov needa to get involved in the day to day of companies? Why can't people decide if they want Gov. involvement or not.
Why no news about the big wwe deal yesterday?
For real.
No one cares about wwe
@@cryptonize2105 clearly we do.
@@cryptonize2105ikr
At what cost? My wallet/ sanity.
Now they have wwe weekly u knew this would happen
Isn't the basic plan 720p 😂
My best suggestion if you don’t want ads without breaking the law is to only keep your subscription active for things you want to binge watch or just watch one time. Once you have watched what you want to watch, cancel your subscription until it’s time to return to Netflix at a later date for another temporary period. Sure it might take a few more seconds. But in the long run you save money so 10 to 30 seconds for cancelling a subscription is worth it. And while it will take another 10-30 seconds to reactivate it. Over time, your bank account will thank you at the expense of the Netflix Executives who will have a lower Christmas bonus,
It seems that’s they’re shaping the new business model around the WWE Raw acquisition
yeah, I'm sure a service with 260,000,000 users is shaping itself around a product that gets 0.7% of that.
@@vanillatornado8390 it used up 5 billion dollars worth of funds. They gotta make that money somehow
Straw Hats rise up!
People with jailbroken fire sticks must be laughing rn
Whaaat! This will definitely make me subscribe now! 😂
Perfect! Time to cancel my subscription!
This is over a month or three old news.
That Deadpool picture is a hint... Deadpool is going to lose his top half this time and grow it back...
Dollar flu hits Netflix.... 💲💲💲💲، 😂😂😂 ...
Bye bye netflix it's been fun
Everyone says if Netflix does this then well leave. Well where were yall when they got rid of account sharing? They went up in subscribers so yall are a bunch of liars!
Just be pirates and free to roam the seas!!!
DAMN STRAIGHT LIKE ACTUALLY COMMIT SMH
What people say and do are 2 separate things.
I'll just pirate content lmao
Arr mateys, time to sail the high seas 🦜🏴☠️
Is this because they spent several billion on WWE today?
Greed never sleeps
They could make 20 Godzilla Movies instead 1 average Burnt Ticket
Miss it veing fre😢
surprising 0 people
lol can’t wait till they go bank robed
Netflix is replaceable Amazon video is nicely and delivers groceries 😂.
Amazon Prime is the best
Remember if you let them do that, other platforms will follow and it will become new normal(industry standard). You cant let them do that
Curse you, Netflix!
Netflix tripping lol. Cant share an account but you want mfs to watch AD's? lol Thats why mfs be doing what they do. Id rather just mess with Hulu
Thanks WWE👍😂
Pirating is free.
How do u pirate though
Omg.
Urkel still?
Greed .. bye bye netflix
Crapitalism.
the people that are still subbed there are the same people that buys iphone every year
all of their shows have been (for a long time) available online for free if you know where to look 🤷
Netflix has sold its soul to the devil
Man, I’m glad i’ve never used Netflix.
And toodles to Netflix. I’m out.
I'm dropping netflix
Netflix wouldn’t ha too increase prices if they didn’t waste slouchy money on poor original productions and ruin their own franchises.
Yarrrrr
Netflix needs to start funding indie games...
I’m a
Bout to cancel that
🏴☠️
Lol eff em
Capitalism is gonna Capitalism! 🗑️
See this is why Amazon is infinitely times better they are making it affordable if you are low income or if you have ebt
Except there adding ads to Prime at the end of the month, and adding a tier to remove ads.
1st 😊
But what about the movies and shows Netflix has on offer? Aren't they worth it?
stop giving money to subscription services, people. the power is in your hands.
Netflix doesn’t have an original show/movie catalogue that at all justifies these tone deaf business practices they’ve been implementing lately
Bidenomics
Okay Blockbuster Video rental here is your come back year, where else can you rent video games, bring back brick and motor again seems like that's where we're headed back full circle. As soon as there is ads on netflix bye bye had you since the beginning Netflix but that would be the nail on the coffin really, gone. Yo make a higher price option give newer releases, that's what blockbuster did they competed to be the first to have all the newest coolest movies, instead Netflix wants to poop in a box and double the price.
