The Rise of Netflix and Its Pricing Strategy
Netflix recently achieved a significant milestone by adding a record 19 million new subscribers in the fourth quarter, marking a 44% increase compared to the previous year. The company also exceeded expectations in its financial performance and announced price hikes across its U.S. subscription plans. Over the last decade, the cost of a premium subscription has doubled, highlighting an increasing disparity between its various pricing tiers. This trend showcases a growing phenomenon termed 'inequality pricing,' where products and services cater distinctly to wealthier consumers versus those with lower incomes.
