on Thursday October 5, the ad lite extension that has been comped to annual subscribers for the previous two months will be removed. That means everyone is going to see an uptick in ads unless you choose to upgrade to the ad lite subscription.
Users who want a virtually ad-free experience (removes all ads except publisher-owned ads) can purchase the Ad Lite add-on product for $2/mo or $20/year. Or to get even more value, the Ad Lite product is part of the Rivals All Access add-on package, which is $45/yr for annual subscribers and $8/mo for monthly subscribers and includes read-only access to all message boards across the Rivals Network. This is something a lot of you have asked about.
I know some will not be thrilled with this change and some will be upset. We haven’t raised prices in 20 years. In lieu of raising prices, we are offering you a way to decrease the ads you see. I’m sure it will be bumpy early on but we will figure it out as we go.
