Netflix is adding a new, cheaper tier that includes ads. If you pay for Netflix currently and don't downgrade to the cheaper tier, you won't get ads.
- prepend 4y agoI think it’s accurate. The Netflix service historically had no ads, now they are adding a tier with ads. Netflix has been pretty vocal on how much ads suck for users, and I agree. I dropped Netflix because their content sucked and their prices were high and their recommendation engine was bad. And they were getting suckier and higher. I expect that ads will creep up higher tiers and also push up prices on the ad free tiers. Netflix is becoming Blockbuster.
