Netflix ad supported plan can cost from $7 to $9

The Stranger Things season 4 It was a bombshell, preview of the premiere of Cobra Kai V Also, while there are no more titles that come to my mind at the moment, I undoubtedly attribute it to the lack of time to watch more movies and series, as I am sure to offer a platform to stream this type of content There will be other very interesting releases during 2022We still have four months to complete that list. However, even if you are a weekly subscriber to Our summary of premieresIn all of its releases this year, you’ll find the most anticipated Netflix premiere of 2022.

I am referring of course to the subscription plan with ads. Yes, this is at the beginning of the year They said it wasn’t in their plansbut after the alarming close of the first quarter saw a 180-degree turn, although in fact we have to say it was back-to-back rotations of another 90 and 90, as Netflix initially stated that it was considering it, But in the medium and long term (for some time in 2023 or 2024), but that finally accelerated, to the point where it was predictable For the first time in some markets Before the end of 2022. A very smart move, in my opinion, since a similar plan first appeared on Disney+ It is also scheduled for this year.

There is, of course, a lot of skepticism about this plan with advertising: Their prices, the number of advertising entries, their format, the extent of their intervention … And this is in a company that puts Attention to detail Which we can classify as excellent, will undoubtedly save a lot of work in their office. Much of the work is concentrated in a “short” time, because even without abandoning the usual business model, they must meet deadlines by a much smaller margin than they regularly use.

We still don’t know the price of the Netflix plan with ads but according to Bloomberg saysAnd the Netflix is ​​considering a monthly fee of seven to nine dollars. We’re of course talking about the price in the US, which will definitely be the first market to get this new plan. It is unknown, at the moment, whether it will be the only market in the debut of the new plan or if, on the contrary, Netflix intends to cover some other geographies from day one.

Whatever the case, the scope suggested by Bloomberg is very broad. To understand it better, we must remember that Netflix Basic Plan includes a monthly fee of $9.99 in the US, and we can believe that the terms of both plans, Basic and Private that include advertising, will be the same (one simultaneous access, one device with offline content and no access to HD content). But it may not be so, as we told you a few days ago, It can have more restrictionsfrom accessing less content to not being able to download content for offline consumption.

Thus, while we wait to find out the final terms of this new plan, the price difference will be between 30% if they finally cost seven dollars and offer the same basic plan, and a meager 10% if Netflix finally determines a difference of only one dollar between the two plans and also introduces additional restrictions. A big difference will determine, with complete probability, your success or failure. What price do you think the end will be? And do you think Netflix’s ad-supported plan will work?
