Half of new Netflix subscribers opt for the $8 per month option rather than ad-free subscriptions, which start at $18 per month, the company says.

Damn, when did it get so expensive? Assuming that's USD. That's a decent amount more than Disney+, right?

Actually not much more I think disney + ad free tier is like $16 now. Though I don't think they- charge extra for 4k so there is that.

Oh I was comparing Disney+ Standard to Netflix Standard. Turns out there's also Netflix Basic which is a similar price to Disney+ Standard, but with many more restrictions.

I think Disney+ Standard and Netflix Standard seem to be comparable. In NZD Disney+ is $16.99 (approx $10USD)and Netflix is $25.99 (approx $15USD) per month. Disney+ gives annual discounts as well.

None of the plans in NZ seem to have ads (yet...).

Though I don’t think they- charge extra for 4k so there is that.

Out of the two plans I see, the Standard only includes up to 1080p and 4k requires Premium, $21.99NZD (approx $13USD).
