Netflix started 2022 off hot with a whole host of new additions. But those new additions come at a cost and that means the streaming company is raising the prices on its plans in the United States and Canada. It looks like the days of $8 Netflix are far in the past.
American Netflix users will now pay $15.49 for the standard plan (a $1.50 increase), $9.99 for the basic plan (a $1 increase), and $19.99 for the premium plan (a $2 increase).
