    Hey Netflix, the amount of people are willing to endure for a paid subscription is ZERO and it will always remain so. In fact even the stupid games advertised on the top of the landing page made me use Netflix less and less, and now that they stopped password sharing I don’t use it at all

    Netflix was canceled even before twitter. It was nice until 3-4 years ago, when the quality of their service started to fall.

        The change about streaming outside my home left me salty. The fact that they changed the deal made stop recommending them. So yeah.

    I can’t tell from the article what the AI side of this is? Are Netflix offering to make adverts for customslrs using AI? Are they just showing adverts in general from customers, including AI generated ones?

    I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong, but I’ve read the article twice and still don’t know 😂

      the streaming leader announced that it has created interactive mid-roll ads and pause ads that incorporate generative AI.

        Thanks! Somehow missed that, but I still don’t really understand the details, like how and whyit incorporates generative AI, and if these are for Netflix or for Netflix ad customers.

    Is there a plugin for Stremio that provides a kid’s profile function? That’s the only thing keeping me from canceling my Netflix subscription.

    Half of new Netflix subscribers opt for the $8 per month option rather than ad-free subscriptions, which start at $18 per month, the company says.

    Damn, when did it get so expensive? Assuming that’s USD. That’s a decent amount more than Disney+, right?

      Actually not much more I think disney + ad free tier is like $16 now. Though I don’t think they- charge extra for 4k so there is that.

        Oh I was comparing Disney+ Standard to Netflix Standard. Turns out there’s also Netflix Basic which is a similar price to Disney+ Standard, but with many more restrictions.

        I think Disney+ Standard and Netflix Standard seem to be comparable. In NZD Disney+ is $16.99 (approx $10USD)and Netflix is $25.99 (approx $15USD) per month. Disney+ gives annual discounts as well.

        None of the plans in NZ seem to have ads (yet…).

        Though I don’t think they- charge extra for 4k so there is that.

        Out of the two plans I see, the Standard only includes up to 1080p and 4k requires Premium, $21.99NZD (approx $13USD).

    Haha, the kicker is that it’s pure greed. With their prices they don’t need it and could improve it with what the community wants, but $$$, hey… been away for nearly 2 years now, thought of tipping my toes in again but with that they can f… right off.

      Eh to Netflix’s credit, both their backend and frontend are much better than their competition. Much better ux, and streams much more consistently. We pick up a sub for a month here and there. But AI ads will make me never go back.
