It was bound to happen. Starting today, Thursday October 5, Netflix subscriber prices will be increased for certain plans, but only by a couple of dollars at the most.

The lowest-tier plan won’t change, according to Business Insider, but the most popular “standard” plan — which allows HD and two streams going at the same time — will go up from $9.99 to $10.99 per month. The highest-tier plan which features 4K and four simultaneous streams will go up from $11.99 to $13.99. Current subscribers will start being notified about the change by October 19 and will see the price hikes go into effect in their next billing cycle.
