Re: How much does it cost to watch Netflix videos in Nigeria Reply by Felix Okoli on Friday February 12, 2016 at 10:32:50:

It depends on a variety of factors such as your monthly subscription and other variable costs such as the video size, video length and internet data cost. It costs about 3GB to watch a 1 hr movie in HD while for SD, it uses about 1GB of data. You can get 1GB of data in Nigeria for about N1000. So, the minimum cost of watching a 2 hr Netflix movie in HD is about N3000 since it would use up to 3GB of data worth at least N3000.

I think that makes it more expensive than watching DSTV or Iroko TV. DSTV allows me to watch tonnes of movies for a flat monthly fee of N14000 but that N14000 would only give me access to watch less than 5 movies on Netflix. Can't they make it cheaper?

The main problem with watching Netflix in Nigeria is the high cost of internet services. As already noted, it costs at least N1000 to get 1GB of data in Nigeria and not many people can easily afford to spend up to 20GB per month watch Netflix. You also have to consider the fact that a majority of Nigerians are poor as they receive a low monthly income. It is not the Netflix monthly subscriptions that are the problem but the cost of internet usage itself. It would be better if there were many companies offering an unlimited data service so that people would just pay a flat monthly or yearly fee for internet. Oxygen Wifi tried something like that a few years ago but they're not working again for now.

Be ready to spend up to N6000 per 2 hr movie watching Netflix. I recently tried it and all my data was gone after watching a movie. Don't use a mobile data plan to watch Netflix unless you have no other use for the data. However, I do like the idea of a video streaming service. Many Nigerians need to embrace internet streaming as an alternative to Cable TV.

With the way I see it, it shows that Netflix is only for rich Nigerians and not for poor ones.
