Video Sreaming Ad Value Might be Between $8 and $10 Per Month, Per Subs on Those Accounts

How much financial value does advertising represent for popular content apps? Nearly 100 percent for ad-supported apps including Facebook and Google search or YouTube. 

A new wrinkle is the growing importance of advertising revenue for e-commerce or subscription-based streaming video products

And one way of quantifying advertising value is to compare the ad-free and ad-supported versions of streaming video services, where the price difference to the consumer is between $8 a month to $10 a month when choosing to use an ad-free version of the app or service. 

App/Service	Single-User  Ad-Free Per Month	Single-User w/Ads Per Month	Implied Ad Value
Spotify	$12.00	$0.00	$12.00
YouTube	$14.00	$0.00	$14.00
Hulu	$18.00	$8	$10.00
Netflix	$15.50	$7.00	$8.50

And that is the implied value of the advertising.
