Netflix Ad Tier Launches Today In Eight Countries: What to Know
03.11.2022 - 14:53 / deadline.com
Today brings a major milestone in the streaming business, as Netflix introduces its new advertising-backed subscription tier in eight countries.
At 9 a.m. PT, the Basic With Ads plan will go live in the U.S., UK, Australia, Japan, Brazil, France, Germany, Italy and South Korea. It has already lit up in Canada and Mexico, and Spain will follow on November 10.

The company’s chief operating officer and product chief, Greg Peters, described the 5% to 10% of programming that will be missing at launch as “a small minority of viewing.”
What makes it and what doesn’t is “all based on deals,” Peters said, “so it’s not a specific studio. It’s mostly about what the state of the deal was and, again, we’ll work to reduce that number over time.”
Basic with Ads features four to five minutes of ads per hour, with both series and feature films being interrupted by spots. New movies coming to the service — notably marquee originals like Knives Out 2 — “will just have a pre-roll” of spots before the feature plays without interruption, Peters said. “We’ll try to preserve that sort of cinematic model there,” consistent how
