Netflix is to launch its new cheaper package, with adverts from next month - the streaming platform has confirmed. Viewers will pay just £4.99 a month to access Netflix content and will sit through adverts to fund the difference.
Netflix Basic with Adverts will be available in the UK from 4pm on November 3. Each advert that appears in the discounted plan will be 15 or 30 seconds in length, and will play before and during TV series and films, reports The Mirror.
Netflix says there will be an average of four to five minutes of adverts per hour. But while the new package might be cheaper, a limited number of films and TV series won't be available due to licensing restrictions.
