Netflix has upped their subscription prices, again. The standard plan is now $14 a month, up $1 a month from last year. Its premium subscription will go up $2 to $18 a month. Its basic plan remains the same at $9 a month. The new prices will take effect starting immediately for new members while current members will be notified that their subscription is going up as it rolls out over the next few months. Netflix says they have to keep updating their prices so that can continue to compete with the other entertainment platforms and offer more variety of TV shows and films.
