Yeah that's not a bad price.
The launch content is decent. I may actually give the service a shot.

That's a good price. As long as they don't put add on packages and stuff.

Everyone else seems to pitch $10 so not bad.
But they will likely make sure you can't share with friends

this is a launch price to grab subscribers since di$ney is so behind of netflix , it will likely go up a few bucks after a year

I remember while everyone else had discount cards for attending parks, Disney only allowed one card to be issued to a person who registered it. They made it difficult.

And DC Universe has a lot more content. Also, this $6.99 per month price is just a starter price. No doubt they're going to jack up the prices when it comes time to renew the subscription.

The DC universe is exactly that just DC related content. Great deal if you just want the DC content. And yes I'm aware of it being the starter price. Great thing about the subscription is that if Disney gets too overpriced I can cancel it. No skin off my back. But at least the content is a combination of Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar and Disney related films and shows. So there's more variety of content. |

Disney+ will have all the Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar films. Plus new TV shows from those companies. Plus, all 30 seasons of The Simpsons. Also anything that has ever been on Disney Channel, like all their "tween" shows. High School Musical. The Descendants movies, which is great for my daughter. Disney animation films like Wreck It Ralph, Frozen. All their live action movies. The clsssic cartoons like Snow White, Beauty and the Beast. Someone can pay for a year long subscription for $69, which is $5.75 per month. It's a great deal. Better than any other streaming service available.

No way I'm estimating Television Libraries, but with a little research you get this for movies:
Disney (Disney Main Banner, Pixar, Lucasfilms, Marvel Studios, Touch Stone, Hollywood Pictures and Espn Films along with 20th Century Fox, 21st Century Fox, Fox Search Light) you get roughly 3000+ films they have the rights too.
Universal-Comcast-At&t aren't just a film studio they are a Film Library. (dreamworks, illumination, focus, amblin, etc) They have bought rights and other studios film stock for years. Roughly speaking they have around 4500+ films they have rights too.
Universal starts their streaming service this year.
Warner Brothers is also not just a studio but a film library. (dc films, new line, Turner, Castle Rock, etc) I know they already have DC Universe Streaming, but that's going to pale in comparison when they start their Streaming Service in 2020. They roughly have 7000+ films in their library.
I don't know if amount of rights dictates a good streaming channel though. Paramount/Viacom has their streaming service and I don't think they are doing gang busters on their streaming site. They are in the 3500 film rights range. Rights to old works is a great foundation, but what it boils down too is what you can build on that foundation.
I never thought I see Movie Studios having a cold war with their back catalogs of movies/shows and build what is essentially TV Neworks to battle each other out. If studios start pulling their content from Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu (with Disney owning 60% now I don't see Comcast staying in so it will prolly be first to go) that will be a shit tone of pressure on them.
(If you are wondering I got bored so didn't do Sony)

Vassaggo What is the paramount/viacom streaming service called please? CBSonline. It's the service Star Trek Discovery is on. I think there is a Paramount Network too.

I think it is called CBS All Access. Didn't realize it was considered the paramount streaming service but it makes sense.
The Paramount network is a cable channel and used to be called Spike.

I had no idea that's what happened to Spike.

I'm still opposed. Call it a preference for what I already have, but the truth is I only barely love Netflix either. I'm still of the opinion that I'd rather own the content. If I can't own it, then I'd at least like to see it in theaters. That would make it accessible for the greatest number of people. Roma is one of the best movies I almost threw out the window because of its eligibility for the Oscars BUT it was released in theaters which made it okay. If Disney's going to go the route of hoarding their whimsy and making it so you can only access it with their service, then screw them. Good price be damned, it's the principle. If they decide to take something out of their catalogue, you're shit out of luck if you don't have a copy of your own.
I assume that by creating their own service, they'll be pulling back all their content from elsewhere to fill their own. Which means all the Marvel stuff will be pulled from Netflix. In theory I can watch Infinity War any time because it's on Netflix, but that's not really true, is it? Once it's pulled, the choices are get a new streaming service or buy the movie; both of which are a slog of a journey for one movie, but that's the position they don't mind putting us in.

Apparently there's going to be films from the Fox Studios film library, including Avatar and Bohemian Rhapsody.
