Netflix is raising its annual subscription fees for customers in the United States, according to the Associated Press.
The streaming service’s most popular plan, which offers HD streaming on up to two different devices simultaneously, is increasing from $11 a month to $13. The premium plan, which provides up to four ultra HD streams, is also increasing by $2, raising the price to $15 a month.
And for the first time in the company’s history, the basic plan, which offers a single-streaming option, will cost users an extra dollar.
This marks the biggest price adjustment since Netflix launched streaming services in 2007.
