Why would anyone pay for Netflix with ads?

Asked by elbanditoroso (33173points) April 20th, 2022

Netflix subscriber numbers went down by 200,000 last quarter, and their stock dropped 35% because there’s a worry that their best days are behind them – too much competition.

Netflix is floating an idea to have a cheaper, but advertising supported version of its service.

Why would anyone pay for a diminshed Netflix experience? Once they are showing ads, they’re no different from any other service (or TV channel).

Would you pay for an ad-supported streaming service?
