I find the paid with ads tier so confusing. Kind of defeats the purpose of paying.
55% of new Netflix signups between Oct-Dec 2024 were for the ads tier though.
@overload @return2ozma we periodically sign up for it when my kids remember something on there they like watching. The children's accounts don't show ads.
Huh, that's an interesting workaround.
Also, depending on which device you use to watch: if you download the movie/episode and play it, you won't see ads. Not every of their apps lets you download, but depending on which app (on which device) you can use, that's also a neat workaround for non-children-titles
Welp now it'll be gone soon. You dont talk about these things online.....
@overload I mean it's only really a workaround if you really like watching Dinosaur Train...
Hahaha true. I'm not really there yet where they're requesting but we usually go with Play School or Bluey with our toddler. Fortunately ABC iView has both and is free with barely any ads.
