Subscription cost in Poland
Going to the cinema has become something normal and ordinary. More and more often we choose this option to spend time. We realize, however, that going to the cinema is a considerable expense, so we use alternatives every day. One of them is Netflix, which in Poland offers a basic package for PLN 34 per month. For some it is not much, for others it is a considerable expense.
Comparitech research
The latest research conducted by Comparitech shows that Poles pay one of the most expensive subscriptions, and we receive fewer series and films than other users from other countries. The main goal of the study was to check in which country there is the most extensive film library in relation to the price. The first place was taken by Japan, which pays USD 6 per month for access to 5,86 titles, which is approximately PLN 21,5. On the last Poland and Norway appeared in this place. The latter, as it turns out, has a wider selection of films, but also a more expensive subscription, over PLN 40.

Netflix sees no problem
The president of the Reed Hastings platform said at a conference in Warsaw that the company's reach is global. The costs of maintaining the enterprise are the same, and hence the subscription prices are similar, regardless of where it is available. It is a pity that he did not refer to the contents of the library, which is rarely adequate to the monthly fee.
