However, the ‘Ultra’ subscription plan might affect some of the elements of Premium plan, said PhoneArena, and definitely that could be the case. If Netflix is going to squeeze a new plan it will snatch some key features from Premium plan as well, it could be possible that Premium plan would see a price increase while adding the features that are not much valued or Premium plan would see price cut while cutting the features as well, else it might remain the same but which is not very likely to happen.
However, some Italian users claim that ‘promotional material’ from Netflix inferring that Standard and Premium plans would receive features cut when the new Ultra plan would be introduced, limiting Premium plan screens allowance to two from four and for the Standard plan to one display only.
The reports also claim that Ultra plan would be priced at 16.99 Euros which is equivalent of $19.80.
