Netflix won’t increase subscription fees in the Philippines

Netflix recently announced that it will raise their monthly subscription fees. It’s good for the business as Netflix will have more funds to produce and acquire better content, but a bit of a downer for price-sensitive subscribers. Fortunately, subscribers in the Philippines won’t be affected.

According to Netflix Philippines’ PR team, as communicated to Cosmo.ph, the price increase only applies to the U.S. and select markets.

“The price increase only applies to U.S. and select markets in Latin America and the Caribbean. It’s not applicable to the Asia Pacific markets, including the Philippines.”

I initially subscribed to Netflix because of those Marvel series like Daredevil, Luke Cage etc and was very disappointed that Marvel/Disney pulled out these show on Netflix to prepare to launch their own Streaming service.

Firstly, I don't see these Marvel series to be the same again on a Disney platform. These gritty almost R rated Marvel shows would be trimmed down to accomodate a more 'Disney" like rating bearing the Disney name. So I'm definitely out if this Marvel show if it happen.

Secondly, I already fell in love with my Netflix. Those shows that were mentioned in the article like The Office and Friends were my once favorite and have watched that a thousand times already in my movie library files. The Netflix inclusion is just a bonus but not a must form me. I am more into the Korean, Japanese. Asian, Tagalog, UK, European, Documentaries, etc genre content on Netflix more than those sub par (IMHO) US tv shows or movies. Besides, those blockbuster movies (Avengers, Star Wars) I already watched in a THX movie house and/or have downloaded a DD/5.1/Atmos version already.

So I do not see myself subscribing nor switching to another streaming platform like Disney.  One streaming platform - NETFLIX is enough for me. The rest I will just go back to the old reliable T downloading.

The article is like a Disney press release. They are like saying that a lot of Netflix subscribers would swift to Disney +. I don't see this happening. Majority of people won't be subscribing to more than 1 or 2 streaming services. Actually it would be a challenge for Disney  (and the other upcoming streaming platform) to even reach half of Netflix' numbers and content.

Netflix plus You Tube plus downloads are more than enough to satisfy one's visual craving.

[Koolkat]

Yeah. The segregation of movies and series to a specific service is really annoying. Ako, Ok nako sa Iflix, Youtube, TV box and downloads. at least yung Iflix free sa PLDT hehe...

[qguy]

May expiry ba yung iFLIX sa PLDT ?

Honestly, I don't know. Ang alam ko nga meron dapat expiry. But when I checked it, VIP pa rin ako sa iFlix and I still have access to all their library. I've been a PLDT subscriber for 3 years now.

Netflix Worth More Than Disney After Streamer’s Stock Hits All-Time High

Netflix — for now — is worth more than Disney after the streaming company’s shares hit an all-time high Wednesday.

Netflix’s stock, extending its three-day rally, closed up 3.2%, to $426.75 per share. That gives Netflix a current market capitalization of $187.3 billion, putting it just over Disney’s $186.6 billion.

Investors clearly are expecting Netflix to benefit from the COVID-19 crisis, with millions of people under stay-at-home orders — and looking for a diversion.

I just recently discovered Tubi. A nice alternative to Netflix. Puro mga B-movies and direct-to-video ang offerings. But there are a few hidden gems here and there. And its free!

Just subscribe to a VPN service to “mask” your IP address and make it look like you’re in the US. Then Netflix will show US content.

thanks bro, btw are you subscribed to them? can you give us review?

[Wiggum]

I also use a VPN service (Avast) to access Netflix US. Okay naman for occasional use. Minsan lang may error message na lumalabas saying that Netflix detects that I’m using an unblocker or proxy and that it should be turned off. During Holy Week that was the problem, but now I can access US content again via VPN.

[jjjeronimo]

I used to subscribe to PureVPN, naasar lang ako sa parang cat and mouse game between Netflix and the VPN providers, dahil occasionally you will get messages about Netflix detecting a proxy, so you won't be able to use Netflix with your VPN for a while.  I guess it depends on your tolerance levels for disruptions like these.

[egzbuen]

So, there is no single VPN subscription that can avoid these disruptions?

for my SmartDNS service, bihira ang disruption, once in a blue moon, may disruption pero after a few hours or after troublshooting by helpdesk, they will point you out to a solution..

Technically kasi, Netflix does not allow VPN, so the moment they detect that you are using one, that's when the disruption occurs.  Somehow, most, if not all VPN services have their ways around this restriction, so the disruption is usually temporary.  Like I said, it is a cat and mouse game. 

[jjjeronimo]

Just a question: anyone here using an account where other family members are accessing from another country?  Is this an issue with Netflix?

[oznola]

^No. I am using my sisters who is US based
