What is Netflix's ads plan and is it worth it?

Netflix's Standard with Ads plan offers the same content library as the Standard plan (with a few licensing exceptions) at a lower monthly price, but includes an average of 4–5 minutes of ads per hour. It streams in 1080p HD and allows one simultaneous stream. For budget-conscious viewers who do not mind occasional ads, it is a compelling value. The ad experience is reportedly less intrusive than traditional TV, with no mid-episode ad breaks on shorter content.
