Millions of Americans have “cut the cord,” leaving cable behind. But with popular streaming services changing up their pricing models, finding the best value can be tricky.
HULU OR NETFLIX? Cord cutters sick of paying cable bills have been asking themselves that question for years. And now, with Hulu lowering prices for its basic plan and Netflix raising prices on most monthly subscriptions, the debate over what’s the best streaming service for your money grows only more heated.
The latest shift in streaming-service prices began in early January, when Netflix raised the price of its standard plan, which allows HD streaming on up to two screens simultaneously, to $12.99 from $10.99 per month.
Consumers may have anticipated that Netflix competitors would follow in its footsteps and introduce their own price hikes. But streaming service Hulu did just the opposite, lowering prices for its ad-supported base plan, from $7.99 to $5.99 per month.
So is Netflix or Hulu the better deal now? And what about Amazon Prime at $119 a year or live-streaming TV services, for that matter?
