Netflix is about to cost you a bit more. The popular streaming TV service is hiking the cost of its standard plan from $8.99 a month to $9.99. Customers might complain, but investors cheered the news. Netflix (NFLX, Tech30) stock, which was down earlier in the day, ticked up more than 6% after the announcement.
The May 2014 price increase didn't lower subscriber growth. Netflix's regular subscription price increased by a dollar during Q2 of last year, so that most new subscribers now pay $8.99 a month instead of $7.99. That's still an incredible value, when you compare $8.99 a month to what the big cable companies charge for access to their services.
