The Password Crackdown Continues to Play Out It's part of an ongoing trend that sees streaming platforms at large becoming more and more expensive, with Disney's Hulu and Disney+, as well as Discovery+, all increasing in price this month. It came out earlier this month that Netflix is reportedly planning on increasing prices once the SAG-AFTRA strike is resolved. In announcing the move to shareholders today, Netflix said that while it paused price hikes during the password-sharing crackdown, 'our overall approach remains the same - a range of prices and plans to meet a wide range of needs, and as we deliver more value to our members, we occasionally ask them to pay a bit more.' The ad-supported and standard plans remain unchanged for those regions.
In France, the price will increase to 10.99€ for the basic plan and 19.99€ for the premium plan. In the U.K., the basic plan will jump up from £6.99 to £7.99, while the premium plan will go from £15.99 to £17.99.
