Ibadat Kaur is an entertainment writer at Netflix Junkie. Her love for Narcos &amp; Pedro Pascal is what brought her to the world of entertainment news. She has immense love for historical and investigative documentaries on people and cultural practices. If this was not enough, she was a blogger prior to keeping her step in the glitz and glamor of the entertainment world and covered culture and heritage while traveling across Central and South America. For Ibadat, writing has been her safe space, and she aims to pick up reviewing anthology formats like Black Mirror &amp; Criminal at Netflix Junkie. If you want an expert on comedy (dark and satire) psychology or travel, then Ibadat is your person. While you will mostly find her covering everything and anything from the world of entertainment, about her favorite celebrities, shows, and movies, Ibadat is an avid Schitt's Creek fan and loves the novel George Orwell’s 1984. And if not this, she will be seen actively backpacking for her next trip, petting her dog Raven, or studying the human condition (side-eye).

Embarking on a new era of minting money, the $1.64 trillion worth conglomerate, Amazon is set to surprise its streaming service users with an unprecedented addition to the Prime Video platform. Beginning today, commercials will infiltrate fans’ favorite TV shows and movies in the USA, UK, Germany, and Canada. This recent introduction has sparked speculation about the streamer&#8217;s ambitions. Is Amazon merely chasing Netflix&#8217;s subscriber numbers, or could it carve a unique path in the streaming landscape?
Here are some projections of the consequences of this move. Not to forget the parallels between the OTT rivals, Netflix and Amazon’s ad-free options. 
<h2>Amazon Prime vs Netflix paid models</h2>
On the surface, Prime Video’s ad-supported tier resembles Netflix&#8217;s ad-free counterpart. Unless subscribers choose to shell out an additional $2.99 per month, it will default to integrating ads into their content. The result? Morgan Stanley has predicted that ads will generate $3.3 billion in revenue in 2024 for Amazon. Going forward, the forecast suggests a growth of over $5 billion in 2025, then more than $7 billion the following year!

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
As for the financial aspect for Netflix users, people had been paying $4 more than the $6.99 containing ads to get the basic subscription without them. So, Netflix certainly charges more for an ad-free experience. Considering <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-riding-on-meghan-markle-starrer-suits-massive-success-netflix-forges-to-churn-out-more-licenced-content/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">its plans to bring more licensed content onto the platform in the near future</a>, some shifts in the fee structure are possible to allow for expansion.

Besides this, there is another factor that sets apart Prime Video from Netflix.
<h2>How is Prime Video&#8217;s offering different from Netflix’s?</h2>
One thing to note is that Amazon Prime carries additional perks. Free shipping, music streaming, and cloud storage make the service a bundled bonus unlike the pure-play streamer, Netflix. This suggests it might not be solely focused on replicating Netflix&#8217;s success. Instead, it could be aiming to expand its Prime ecosystem to subsidize the cost of its membership, potentially leading to more content on the platform.

Moreover, Amazon has a distinct advantage in advertising. This is obviously the biggest and most sought-after currency of the decade, data. With user information collected from its e-commerce platform, it can target ads with much more precision than Netflix, making them more relevant than those on other streaming platforms. So, those ticked off by the intrusion of ads may find some relief in this aspect.
