I didn't say I don't like their content. I am saying that I wouldn't pay every month to have the option to look at their content. Will you be watching Toy Story and Finding Nemo 4 times a month? I'd rather buy those on a disc (which I did) and pop them in every now and then.
Better yet, sometimes cinemas replay those classics so you can enjoy the full experience. I'd rather pay to go look at that.
- lifeisstillgood 7y agoI'm not convinced the economics work out that well. Rough guess, Disney now has call it 60 top flight movies, from Snow White to Star Wars (top flight as in have been either box office smashes and/or perennial money makers). If I could buy all the DVDs (I'm not sure I could) I would be paying 15 quid a shot - that's 900 pounds. At 9 quid a month subscription that's 8 and a half years before I break even. I am fairly sure I lost most of the DVDs I had 9 years ago in our last house move. Yes it is likely to be bad economics, but it's not that bad. Edit: I wanted to check my 60 movie count and I think I am under estimating - (1) lists 57 "Classic Animated Movies" - and some are obscure but I would lay good money that most people you know have seen at least 40 - and that does not include any Pixar (20 movies?) Marvel or Star Wars (must be 30 by now). A family (and yes that's the target audience) could have a Movie Bight once a week for ten years on this subscription. I guess only time and competition will tell 1) https://reelrundown.com/animation/all-50-disney-classics-movies https://reelrundown.com/animation/all-50-disney-classics-mov...
