Disney And Warner Bros. Discovery Team On Bundle Featuring Disney+, Hulu And Max

Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery are breaking ground in streaming with a bundled offering featuring Disney+, Hulu and Max in a single package.
The companies are aiming to launch the bundle this summer. The exact launch date and the price point have not yet been announced, but plans call for both ad-free and ad-supported versions to be available.
The move creates the first cross-company partnership for any of the top-tier services to come to market as the race to catch up with Netflix began in earnest about five years ago. It follows years of speculation and public musings by top executives about when cross-company bundling might begin to make streaming more cost-efficient for programmers and consumers alike. Pay-TV operators served as third-party bundlers in the cable age, but while distribution deals with the likes of Roku and Amazon are key to any streaming service gaining traction, it’s mostly every-app-for-itself in the streaming era.

Brands to be showcased in the new Disney-WBD bundle include ABC, CNN, DC, Discovery, Disney, Food Network, FX, HBO, HGTV, Hulu, Marvel, Pixar, Searchlight and Warner Bros. The new offering will be available for purchase on any of the three streaming platforms’ websites.
“On the heels of the very successful launch of Hulu on Disney+, this new bundle with Max will offer subscribers even more choice and value,” said Joe Earley, President, Direct to Consumer, Disney Entertainment. “This incredible new partnership puts subscribers first, giving them access to blockbuster films, originals, and three massive libraries featuring the very best brands and entertainment in streaming today.”

So wait it’s 70 bucks for a year then 120 for a year after that?
Surely that can’t be right because HBOMax is that much by itself today
Or are they asking for those each month? And no I’m not reading any articles to look this up

I miss those old school antennas. Growing up in Washington Parish we could pick up the stations out of NO and BR with a 20ft antenna without issue. In my experience the same can’t be said for these new digital antennas.

Since Hulu was added to Disney+, with you get that bundle, you could add Max as an add-on and get all three in one place.
The regular pricing has been $10/mo for Hulu and Disney+ with ads or $20/mo for Hulu and Disney+ without ads. Max is a $16/mo add on.
If this new bundle isn't cheaper than $26 or $36 per month, then I'm not sure what the point of this announcement is.

we’re getting Cable a la carte.
but it does still seem cheaper.
I priced our cable recently and to get the sports package and HBO and a food package it was insane
