They're calling it the "New Golden Age of TV" .... the streaming wars escalate with the launch of Disney+....

[lightbright]

….. like I've been saying …. this shit's gonna start to cost you ….. I just got a new comcast plan to reduce costs which had shot up to $278/mth …. now it's $258/mth …. but Netflix is included … but every fucking year I have to keep negotiating a new promo plan, but the costs still end up going up like $5-10 a month ….

sidebar: for all you slick mofos that share passwords … they're discussing ways of combatting that too … like periodic password resets ….restricting access based on geographical locations, etc.


Disney +
Amazon Prime
Hulu .…. I remember when that shit was free when they were breaking it in …
Netflix
CBS ALL ACCESS
NBC
Universal
Warner Media

That guy forgot to show free streaming sites in this war... How you have to pay the maximum of free on them and how that will affect your wallet...he forgot to show how they have the most content on them free streaming sites and how all those sites have a conglomerate of all your favorite shows under 1 umbrella

There’s not enough time in the day to watch all this stuff.

My family wants Disney Plus, and my line in the sand is “cool, say goodbye to Netflix.” We have Hulu Plus (really just for ESPN and the conference networks), Amazon Prime (I don’t watch anything on Prime; the ability to ship stuff to my crib and others is why I pay for it) and Netflix (usage has cooled significantly. Quietly, there’s enough content over the air and via YouTube and Reddit NFL/NBA/NHL/MLB Stream that no service is necessary, it’s more convenience.

Folks wallets getting drained by a thousand cuts by streaming now; only advantage over cable is no long term contract.

As long as apps like teatv, Cinema hd and Showbox are available, I'm good.

Disney's Bundle deal is pretty nice...

Disney+. ESPN+. Hulu = 12.99

New Golden Age, huh? When 90% of it is derivative bullshit that doesn't even have a passing acquaintance with originality.
