The ad-free version of Discovery Plus is getting a price hike


The monthly price of ad-free Discovery Plus is jumping up in cost from $6.99 per month to $8.99 per month (plus taxes), Warner Bros. Discovery announced on Tuesday.

Discovery’s other streaming service, there’s still a reason to pay for the now-more-expensive price for the Discovery-focused subscription.
You might want to prepare your wallet for more streaming price hikes, by the way; Netflix is reportedly going to get more expensive after the Hollywood actors strike is over. And Disney is bumping up the cost of Disney Plus and Hulu’s ad-free tiers next week.
