Netflix is finally rolling out an ad-supported tier. This new tier, which costs $7 a month, is designed to curb concerns that the ad-free version of the streamer was too expensive. It first rolled out on November 3, and now that it’s available, many potential subscribers are curious about all the ways it’s different from the long-running ad-free version of the service. The main difference, obviously, is that all of the content has ads.
Contents No comprehensive list of these titles has been released yet, but based on a perusal from Variety as well as other available information, it seems that there are a fair number of high-profile TV shows and movies that won’t be available at the ad-supported tier.
There are also quite a few horror and action titles that aren’t available in the ad-supported tier. Like Netflix more generally, most of the movies that won’t be in the ad-supported tier skew more recent, and it still leaves plenty of movies worth watching on the platform. Given that this new tier is a full 50% cheaper than the ad-free tier, it may be worth sacrificing a few titles for.
