theres also a high probability of misinformed (or well-informed but adversarial) twitter users getting #CancelNetflix to trend because people will only read the headlines and not understand that they wont be seeing ads unless they want to save money.
- ghaff 5y agoWhether ads are a discount or ad-free is a premium is just a matter of framing.

- ishjoh 5y agoI appreciate that you're being positive but with media companies I'm much more cynical. I think we're going to see a price increase to stay ad free or an option to have the same price with advertising. So it will be a price increase to keep your same service ad free.
