Netflix Has Raised Prices in 2 Countries -- Is the U.S. Next?

"But really, at this point, we're not even thinking about price increases," then-Chief Product Officer Greg Peters said in April. Peters, who was promoted to COO in July, elaborated more on the company's thinking on the second-quarter earnings call, but his comments seemed to suggest that price increases are a real possibility.
