T-Mobile announced its "Netflix On Us" plan for customers today, offering subscribers to the carrier's T-Mobile ONE family plan free access to the streaming service at no additional charge.
While a nice little bonus for those who primarily use mobile devices for watching shows on-the-go, T-Mobile's new initiative is also meant to be taken as a response to internet-and-cable bundles often sold through other carriers.
“While the carriers spend billions on their franken-strategies to cobble together carrier-cable-content mashups," said John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile, "[T-Mobile] just leapfrogged them all by partnering with the best and giving it to customers at no extra charge."
T-Mobile's Netflix bonus is available to T-Mobile ONE subscribers with two or more qualifying lines starting September 12, and can be applied to customers who already subscribe to the streaming service.
For fans of ultra-high definition streaming, Legere does mention that the service included with Netflix On US is the standard version, meaning that you'll still need to fork over a few extra bucks if you have a 4K TV or perhaps even the now-supported Samsung Galaxy Note 8.
