Netflix Blu-ray titles get a price increase in April
Netflix claims it has increased its Blu-ray catalog to include 1300 titles, but given the expensive price of Blu-ray discs apparently feels justified in jacking up its prices. In a post on its blog today, Netflix says it'll be increasing its prices on April 27, from its 2-disc per month plan all the way up to its 8-disc at a time unlimited plan. The 2-disc plan will increase from $4.99 to $5.99, gradually increasing to a $9 price jack on its 8-disc plan to $56.99. Personally I don't see this as a big deal. Sure, a $1 increase on a $5 initial price is a fairly large 20% increase. But the wallet damage is marginal for most of us. As Netflix says though, "if you don't want to pay the additional charge for monthly access to Blu-ray, simply remove Blu-ray access from your account before April 27, 2009."
