I wouldn’t be surprised if they crunched the numbers and realized adverters are desperate for a new place to show ads now that cable is basically dead.
They’ll keep raising the prices of ad free hoping people move to the ad supported tier.
If you’re ad free, Netflix makes the most profit when you never open it, and may even lose money if you’re always streaming something.
On ad plans, they’ll keep making money the more people watch. There’s no “tipping point” where profits go down the more someone watches.
Spot on. I expect within five or six years most streaming services will have priced ad-free plans out of the average person’s budget and then they’ll drop them entirely, citing a lack of consumer demand. There’s way more money to be made through cablefication.

I mean. Supposedly.
But then again, cable is dead for a reason.
Yes, and the reason cable is dead is specifically because streaming offered a more affordable, convenient, and ad-free option. Now that it’s pretty much the only legal game in town and every greedy fuck out there is trying to start their own streaming service the cablefication is well underway. You think the c-suite types give a single fuck about the long-term viability of their services? lol no. They’re here for short term profits. They’ll be carried off into the sunset by their golden parachute while you’re paying $45/mo to watch commericals on Netflix.
Not my money. Piracy is easier at this point anyway. Or God forbid I get a hobby or go outside.
I’d seriously rather watch paint dry than watch commercials.
