After Netflix, it’s Disney’s turn to change up its streaming offering. The American giant has announced several changes to its platform, including the arrival of an ad-supported package. After a final test in the US, the offer will roll out to the rest of the world, including France, from November 1.
With a price of 5.99e per month, it will allow those with small budgets to subscribe and have access to exclusive content, as well as a fairly rich catalog. But with this good news comes bad news.
Disney+ adjusts its prices as shown in the table below. Although the most expensive package is currently €89.90 per year, it will increase to €119.90 in a few months.
Disney+ recommends that “Subscribers will retain their current subscription, which will be rebranded as Disney+ Premium, and will have the option to upgrade to a standard membership or a standard membership via an ad..”
In other words, without any changes on your part, you will be automatically upgraded to the highest package. Be careful, if you downgrade your plan, you’ll only be able to enjoy 2 screens versus the current 4.
Account sharing Hunt
This is the black point of all streaming platforms. While Netflix and Paramount have solved the problem, Disney is counting Do it from 2024. House boss Bob Iger said his team is already working on the issue, and subscribers who use a third-party account should start worrying before the end of the year.
This strategy is obviously aimed at increasing the number of subscribers and stopping the losses that the company has been suffering for several months. After changing its content strategy, Disney is now tackling the root of the problem. Will it be paid or not, as far as Netflix is concerned.
