What streaming costs in 2025: The price of Netflix, Disney Plus, Max and more

Computer with logo: Netflix , HBO MAX, APPLE TV PLUS, NETFLIX, PRIME VIDEO are online video streaming services.

There once was a time where streaming services were thought to be the more cost-effective alternative to traditional cable. That isn't the case these days. In fact, streaming costs can creep up to over $100 a month when you factor in ad-free tiers, additional content, and all the options available per streaming service.

According to a survey by Reviews.org, Americans spent an average of $42.38 per month on their streaming subscriptions, or $508.56 per year. But that's a drop of 23% from the previous year, so clearly more and more users are hitting the cancel button.
