Netflix's second price increase in two years pushes monthly costs higher, even as the platform continues to dominate streaming with millions of global subscribers.

The scene following the collapse of Netflix’s bid to buy Warner Bros. was perhaps a bit predictable — the streaming giant is raising prices.

As of this latest price hike, Netflix's ad-supported Standard plan is going from $8 per month to $9 per month, while the ad-free version is rising from $18 to $20 per month.
