This audacious fee jump did trigger disappointing subscriber metrics over the next two quarters, but the positive effect on plan choices made another appearance. In the third quarter of 2019, average revenue per subscriber rose 16.5%, as compared with the 2018 result. All told, North American revenues increased by 21% in 2019, even though none of the monthly fee increases rose that high.</p><p>So it looks like Netflix lost some of its most price-sensitive members in lower-tier plans, but the higher-priced plans with better video quality and more concurrent streams seem to become more popular with every price increase.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e04a1eaad4247e938f196143e51417f\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1125\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p><p><b>What's next?</b></p><p>The decision to raise prices in January is probably giving us hints about Netflix's upcoming fourth-quarter report.
