Netflix to lose Disney- Disney to build streaming service

Interested in people's thoughts on this. Will people buy ANOTHER streaming service? Can Disney build something people want to use? Discuss. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2017/8/8/16115254/disney-launching-streaming-service-ending-netflix-deal

Every Disney movie from Snow White to Moana and every Pixar movie from Toy Story to Cars 3. Hard to turn that down.

Would you get rid of another streaming service to compensate or just be fine having more?

add to that the ESPN, abc, star wars, and marvel lineups... that's pretty compelling.

It's already hard to watch the entire Disney collection unless you were a collector from the VHS days. Plus more content with Marvel and Star Wars. Can see people using it.

Definitely getting it!

Building a streaming service is almost orthogonal with producing content. HBO tried it and their offering is super lame

Yep Netflix is sucking at content production

Amazon moozoo Aug 8, 2017

Netflix is trying to get in the content business. Disney is trying to get into streaming. Money!

Looking at this 6 year old thread. What do people think. Netflix price went up, Disney is still there, HBO , price is there and several other streaming providers. All we need is an integrator. One service to rule them all
