Nowadays, many people pay monthly for streaming platforms… Among these, the most popular are Disney+ and Netflix. And, even if you think it is crazy, these 2 platforms will have advertising when watching content from their catalog.

Initially, this idea was planned to be implemented only in Netflix. However, we were recently surprised by announcing that Disney + in December 8, 2022, will increase the current membership price (from $7.99 to $10.99), and a new version with advertisements will be available to viewers (costing $7.99).
The advertising will not be present in children’s profiles and, in normal profiles, it will not appear in the entire catalog and it will not be too annoying. The duration of the advertising videos will be between 15 and 30 seconds.

Regarding Netflix we cannot say many things (as they did not reveal much information)… Although we can make it clear that, unlike Disney+, Netflix does not pretend to increase the price of his current memberships, but it wants to create a new subscription, cheaper than those currently available…
This means that, at least in Spain, the price will be less than €7.99 (since it is the current price of the basic membership).

Unfortunately, this new cost in Netflix won’t have the offline viewing option… In other words, you will not be able to download content to watch offline.

We hope that all this does not affect too much when watching movies or series and, finally, it is very important to say that all this information may vary depending on your country (since in some countries the plan with advertising may not appear).
