I think ads would kill Netflix, if it has ads it's not better than youtube or tv catch-up. Honestly what I think they should do is add micro-transactions. Introduce netflix points, which can be used to do things like skip the wait on shows released weekly. Watch new netflix movies ahead of the rest of the subscribers, etc. The marketing challenge would be to pass it of as getting perks instead of penalizing the rest of the subscribers, the easiest way to do that would be to include a small number of netflix points in the standard subscriptions. It could work like you can watch up to episode 5 this week and wait one week for episode 6 or pay 1 netflix point per episode to watch the rest now. You can buy 1 netflix point for 1 dollar and everybody gets one every month as part of their subscription.
