Ads might be making their way onto Netflix.
It’s no secret that Netflix has been cracking down on password sharing recently. Plus they’ve just raised their prices again. But the big news was yesterday when it was released that they lost 200,000 subscribers in the first quarter. That’s a massive loss.
So in a way to ad new subscribers and stop current ones from leaving, they’re debating adding a cheaper ad-supported option. It’s worked for Hulu and Peacock, but the best part of Netflix is the lack of ads so it’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.
Though, they’re not planning on rolling out these cheaper plans until a year or two from now.
