I know Apple had some history with Disney (well, Steve Jobs had history with Pixar), so I wonder if they'll have some sort of deal to include Disney content in this.
Because if they don't, I have a really hard time seeing Apple's content library at $10 competing at all with Disney+ at $7.
An alternate theory, Apple has other subscription services (Music and upcoming Arcade) that could be bundled together at a discount to give them a competitive offering.
Since they're finally trying to make a serious push on Apple TV as a gaming platform (in that it's getting PS3/XB1 controller support) it would make some sense to try and rope people into both subscriptions. If music rides along and gets people to switch from Spotify, that's a bonus.
- lancesells 7y agoBut isn't Disney+ only Disney properties and family-friendly content? Apple seems more like a HBO or Netflix.
- andyfleming 7y agoYou have to remember Disney includes Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and 20th Century Fox, which includes the Simpsons. They advertise 30 seasons of the Simpsons on the Disney plus landing page.
- lancesells 7y agoSo Disney+ will have original content for mature audiences content from Fox? I totally think it'll be a monster hit but it seems like if you're not interested in the franchises and want to watch truly original series / content you need an HBO or Netflix.
