According to an email that was sent out to its customers, the price of a monthly streaming subscription is increasing from $7.99/month up to $8.99/month. That's on the low end of what the company was considering doing, based on their previous earnings reports. On the bright side, Netflix is trying to build some goodwill by promising to lock in the price for current customers at $7.99 for an entire two years. Unlike cable providers, who routinely increase prices at the drop of a hat, this is a nice customer-friendly move by the company.
