Netflix takes away, Netflix gives: after stopping password sharing, good news arrives. The resolution of the base plan increases to 1080p
Netflix recently announced its plans to enhance the experience of its subscribers to the Basic plan, which is the cheapest option offered by the streaming platform. The Basic plan with ads was introduced last year, with a subscription price of €5,49 per month. However, the presence of advertisements and the reduction in video quality and catalog have generated some criticism from users.

To improve the service and make the Basic plan more appealing to a wider audience, Netflix has announced a number of improvements, including a increased video resolution from 720p to 1080p and support for two simultaneous streams. These improvements will be introduced this month in Spain and Canada and were announced in the quarterly shareholder report. Obviously, the novelty will be introduced also in Italy. Netflix believes that these improvements will help further strengthen the engagement of members of the advertising plan, without increasing costs. The streaming platform hopes these updates improve the user experience and incentivize them to stay loyal to the service.
However, some concerns have been raised regarding the effect of advertisements on users' viewing experiences. Also, not all Basic plan subscribers may be interested in using two simultaneous streams. In any case, Netflix's decision to improve the service offered on the Basic plan is still a positive step towards increasing the quality of user experience and could lead to a increased subscriber retention.
