Netflix announces yet another price hike for all tiers, over a year after the last one

https://alternativeto.net/news/2026/3/netflix-announces-yet-another-price-hike-for-all-tiers-over-a-year-after-the-last-one/

> The Standard with ads plan now costs $8.99 per month, up from $7.99, while the Standard plan rises from $17.99 to $19.99 and Premium goes from $24.99 to $26.99. Once again, subscribers are being asked to pay more without getting any changes to the actual streaming service.

> The increase also applies to extra members outside the main household. Adding an extra viewer now costs $7.99 per month on plans with ads and $9.99 on plans without ads, both up by $1. Netflix is not changing video quality, device limits, or any other plan features, so the overall experience stays exactly the same.

Dann wird es bald nach Europa kommen
