Netflix used to not have ads, now it’s ‘celebrating’ two years with them


It added 30 million users since May.

It’s no surprise that the ad-supported plan has seen such growth, as the streamer has started nudging users toward the $6.99 per month option by discontinuing its cheapest ad-free tier. The streamer currently partners with Microsoft to sell ads that not only appear across its basic plans but will also show up during the live football games it’s streaming on Christmas Day. The company is also set to air its live boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul this week, which all subscribers will have access to for free.
