I was watching GMA yesterday I think, they had a story how Netflix is losing millions of subscribers. They are looking into offering a subscription supported by ads at a lesser price ( didn't say how much). You would still be able to subscribe to the no ads. While I do like ad free if I can save a few dollars I would consider it.

Netflix -- I love it!  However, I would have to hear what the reduction would be - whether it would be worth putting up with ads.  I hate ads!  They take up so much time!  That's why if we watch other shows on other stations, we usually tape so we can fast forward!

I would definately consider going with the ads for a lower price.  I am seldom just watching tv.  I am always doing other things while the TV is on and I just don't pay attention to the ads.  It would be worth it for me to lower the cost.

I wonder why they are losing so many subscribers.   Maybe they should stop raising their prices.

@Jordan2   All the ads on YOUTUBE make me crazy, although you can pay for them to disappear. I'm not sure I'd like ads during movies/shows. 

 

My usual TV watching is recorded to watch w/o commercials.

Depends on the price adjustment. Half price? I'll consider adding ads. Otherwise I'll keep the ad free version.

@Shanus    I hate the ads.  I'm with you.  I record a lot of things so I can fast forward.    I have ads with a Hulu and rarely watch because of the ads

I remember when cable first came out you paid for tv because it was ad free. Now it's good old regular tv full of ads for $100 a month

We were considering dropping Netflix after discovering Paramount+ and Hulu.
