Streaming works fine on Linux, even from Disney.

  I'll second this, with the caveat that you won't always get HD streams. Netflix only supports 720p on Linux, and I believe Amazon Prime is limited to SD as well. Disney+ doesn't support Linux, but works for me right now with a spoofed user agent, and claims to be 1080P. YouTube TV works fine without any spoofing, and also claims to be 1080P. I don't know if Hulu works now, I haven't tried it in years. Vudu doesn't support Linux and I didn't try to work around it. Not sure about any of the other new services like HBO Max, or the CBS or NBC streaming services.

    720p is still technically HD. SD is 480.

      Not even technically, 720p is HD. 1080p is "Full HD" (FHD) and 4k is "Ultra HD" (UHD).

        You're both correct, I'm not sure why I made that mistake because I definitely know the difference. I believe Amazon currently is restricted to SD/480p, at least, that's all I can get with Firefox right now.
