Netflix has announced that a cheaper monthly subscription package will be launched in the UK next month. Priced at £4.99, the new option will include adverts and is set to be rolled out at 4pm on Thursday November 3.
Each advert that appears in the discounted plan will be 15 or 30 seconds in length, and will play before and during TV series and films.
There will be an average of four to five minutes of adverts per hour. The Basic with Adverts plan is £2 less than the streaming giant's Basic package, which is priced at £6.99.
While it might be cheaper, a limited number of films and TV series won't be available due to licensing restrictions. Netflix has said it is working on reducing this number.
