Everyone is laughing but the fact is Netflix can’t possibly compete with Disney. And I am NOT a Disney fanboy.

I said this months ago.....Name 3 Netflix originals

Ok now name 15 Disney shows/movies



Netflix was first to market but Disney will crush them

We're going to end up back with 7 or 8 "channels" like in the late 80s by way of streaming services because they're all going to merge & scoop each other up.

Not in a ranking order:
Netflix
ABCDisnESPN+
NBCUniversal
Fox/FX/FXX
HBO
Showtime
AmazonPrime

If I'm 1 of the mega conglomerates I'm buying up BBC, HGTV, Hallmark, TBS/TNT, Bravo, A&E, Discovery, Primetime, etc. ASAP (I don't know who is currently owned by what megas-but if they aren't, I'm making those moves).

These stream services are going to basically recreate what we know as cable/satellite TV today, until they all continue to merge into just a couple of entities. Pricing will continue to drop below current cable/satellite rates then go back & ebb + flow.

Strap in. We're all just along for their corporate ride.

First, it really is not a zero-sum game. Second, it is really more of a Hulu vs Netflix than Disney+ vs Netflix. The reports indicate the more adult programming will end up on Hulu instead of Disney+. The market penetration pricing won't last long either. A lot of people already have both Netflix and Hulu. Many of those will probably add Disney+ since the plan is to bundle Hulu and Disney+ with savings.
