Netflix to offer an affordable subscription to users with adverts

Streaming giant Netflix has struck a deal to offer customers a cheaper subscription tier in exchange for allowing adverts.

In this day and age of everything getting more expensive, a lot of people are reconsidering the myriad of subscriptions they’re signed up for and plenty are choosing to let go of Netflix.

The platform is on the more expensive end of the streaming services and some people have had it for so long that they’re thinking about moving on.

Even with all the content available, you can reach a point where you’ve basically seen everything you want and you’re just paying a monthly fee because you might want to stick on an episode of The Office you’ve already watched a dozen times.

Faced with the prospect of losing subscribers, especially at a point where it looks like their number of users may have peaked, Netflix has announced they’re bringing ads onto the platform.

Teased earlier this year, the company has pushed forward with plans to offer customers a cheaper tier of subscriptions in exchange for a few ads.

This doesn’t mean adverts are going to be mandatory as you can always stay on the more expensive subscription tier, but for those wanting to save a few quid each month, there’s now a cheaper option on the table.

Now they’ve struck a deal with Microsoft to partner with them on bringing adverts to Netflix.
