  • There could be a change coming that will hit those in the UK who stream content from services like Netflix or Prime Video. The change circulates around the UK's licence fee and how it's applied - and a proposal that's in consideration.

The article from T3 discusses potential price increases for UK subscribers of Netflix and Prime Video. It highlights that these streaming services might introduce higher fees for ad-free streaming, following a trend where platforms like Disney+ and Hulu have already implemented similar pricing strategies. The article mentions that Netflix has tested different pricing models in other markets, including charging more for additional users on an account. Prime Video, on the other hand, has introduced ads to its service, with an option for users to pay extra for an ad-free experience. This shift is attributed to the need for these companies to find new revenue streams as competition in the streaming market intensifies and content production costs rise. The article also speculates on how these changes could affect consumer behavior and the overall streaming landscape in the UK.
