I can’t believe how people can commit such heinous sin by suggesting garbage websites like [movie-web.app]. Someone did this to me this morning and I was absolutely thankful enraged.
My family pays for all the major services… but honestly I stopped watching. It is just waaaayyy to much stuff to care about.
I decided that I will only subscribe to things that are unique and have yearly subscriptions. So, that means Criterion Channel, Shudder, Dropout, and Nebula. As a student I get a discount for some of these, and I am paying Youtube Premium because as much Google sucks, YouTube is like UNESCO world heritage sight. Infinite value and priceless.
Guys, my advice is to never use Stremio, it’s a torrent streaming platform. It might take a few minutes to setup add on but it’s still not worth it! What Netflix is doing is fair and people should deal with it!
Indeed! Definitely avoid the torentino add-on and just pay for all the different subscriptions totalling more than what cable costs these days. You’re welcome.
Starting today, Netflix is raising the price of both the Basic and Premium plans in the US, UK, and France. Those members still on the Basic plan will start paying $11.99, marking a $2 increase, while the Premium tier jumps from $19.99 to $22.99. UK subs will now pay £7.99 and £17.99 for Basic and Premium, respectively, while French prices are 10.99€ and 19.99€.
The prices of Netflix’s $6.99 ad-supported plan and the $15.49 Standard tier remain unchanged.
People have been paying to see ads for years. Amazon has had it for at least half a decade, Hulu had it before that (though much more limited in scope). Ad-supported is not a new thing. It's just Netflix was relatively good at one point, before every media company and their uncle wanted a bigger slice of the pie.
Amazon offered prime video as a bonus service though, which was quite a steal for its price - you had both prime shippings and movies/series; the ads weren’t invasive at all too. And it was much cheaper than Netflix ad plan,
The worst thing is that people are actually paying to see ads. like, what the fuck.
So... it's okay to pay for ads if you don't mind them? But your reaction is that?
Sounds like you just have a hate-boner for Netflix and found a way to express that.
Amazon is just as much a shit pile (more so in many ways) as Netflix. Being an apologist for their shitty behavior just makes your arguments that much weaker.
It’s okay to pay one or two bucks to see ONE ad at the start of a movie, getting much more benefits for 2 euro a month (which is how much I pay for prime video). And the ads are skippable too
With Netflix you pay 8 bucks for nothing in return, which makes me wonder… why?
You’re not paying for ads. You’re paying for free fast shipping, and getting a video streaming service that shows ads thrown in for free (also audio books music, and probably some other stuff I’m unaware of).
I’m not saying Amazon is a good company, just that your argument doesn’t have merit.
The thing I hate to see is where you CAN’T pay to get rid of ads, like they won’t let you buy a thing straight up. They’re like “watch it free (with ads)” and that’s the only option – many things on Prime that used to have purchase options. That made me cancel and start collecting DVDs.
Watch a franchise with great source material get absolutely massacred by incompetent showrunners to the point that you can’t even bear to watch it anymore.
The only reason I still even had Netflix was because my parents used my account. I canceled when they cracked down on sharing outside the home. What am I paying for 4 screens for if I can’t use them elsewhere. So happy to be done with them and haven’t missed it either.
I’m on the east coast US and my parents told me they couldn’t get Netflix anymore because they needed a log in code that was getting sent to my email. It took a few months after the announcement, but they have def started rolling it out
Here in Canada I got locked out of my account because I had a camp job. I had to either pay to use it at home and at camp or choose one or the other. So I cancelled. That was around March it happened. Fuck Netflix.
I have it free through T-Mobile and still use my Plex server for any movies on Netflix because I can get 4k BluRay quality. Hell, you can even request that the torrent download start to end effectively letting you stream it. Make sure to only do that on healthy torrents though because it’s awful for the health of smaller torrents.
"Our starting price is extremely competitive with other streamers and at $6.99 per month in the US, for example, it's much less than the average price of a single movie ticket."
You know, movie tickets! Those things that haven't had cultural relevance in years, that nobody actually fucking wants to deal with, but movie studios make shit-tons of up front cash on them so we're forced into waiting through theatrical exclusivity if we have zero interest in watching movies while surrounded by other assholes?
Totally an excellent comparison, given that the last movie I saw in a theater was IT. The first part. And I didn't pay for the ticket.
My Wife and I talked about this price increase and we’re cancelling. If they ever get around to releasing Stranger Things or Wedneaday we’ll sub for a month to watch them. Or Aarr!
Didn’t you notice the extra gay content, that’s offensive to anyone who’s actually gay and only pleases people who for whatever reason feel like they should speak for gays?
