season 1 and 2 I'll rate solid 8.5/10. But season 3 and 4 I don't know what to rate them, it was a bit too poor for me compared to the first 2 seasons... It's not a bad watch nevertheless

lol they are going to loose so much money if they don't do it like this on the fact that the movie is a big budget movie and it's perfectly legal. Sky in the UK has a Channel called "Sky Box Office" and it's offers premium content and you have to pay per view separate from your normal sub even DSTv i think also have a box office feature where you pay and watch a movie for some days aside your normal sub...That been said, i think the only outrage here is the price Disney has fixed for streaming the movie.

Such a model cannot work for streaming services. It can work for cable companies but not Disney.

Sky does provides hundreds of channels (plus thousands of programmes) and does not own the rights to the movies.

Disney owns the right of the movies and does not provide as much programmes as cables.

This means that, a savvy consumer would not pay extra on Disney+. Worse still, is that Disney+ is just starting and they are already pulling money making schemes like this.....it does not look good for them.

i technically said Sky offers "Premium Content" for a fee separate from the normal sub so these contents include contents they own exclusive rights to (Huge Boxing fight and even the recent "Gangs of London" was on demand at a fee for Sky customers before it became available elsewhere because they own it) and contents they don't own.

Now this year has been extraordinary because of Covid-19, and Huge financial commitment Disney has put into the making of Mulan, the publicity alone is running into millions of dollars. There was no way they were going to allow customers stream "Mulan" on a normal sub of $6.99 per month, not only will they loose money, people might actually loose their jobs, and this policy even applies only to the US where the pandemic is still raging on, serious minded countries who have been able to control the spread to some extent,cinemas are open in these countries so they get to see the movie at the cinema.

If Big companies like Disney make decisions like this with emotion it will cripple their financial year, like i said it is extra ordinary times, so in conclusion it is well within their rights to charge a fee to stream the Movie but the price would break a neck.

Yeah, Sky does not own some of the box office movies on sky box office. I havent paid for Sky in about 7 years now, though.

Anyhow, maybe I am letting some bias cloud my judgement. I truly want Disney+ to fail. Disney+ is just an example of greed on Disney's part. They already make billions from their intellectual properties, especially movies, but they now want to take over streaming.

Netflix ftw

You really tried trying to explain simple business strategy to someone who judging by his previous ignorant comment has never managed a business before.

Is your brain leaking? Or do you assume that in business there is only one strategy?

Charging one's customers extra on a paid streaming service is a risky move. There is no precedent and no way of knowing if customers wont revolt agaisnt such charges.

Disney has billions of dollars, so why not be patient and wait for a cinema release?

Also consider the fact that netflix produces films but does not charge extra for its film releases on its streaming services.

In other words, your competitors charge less for what you are about to offer. Risky.


Please, keep quiet when elders are talking. Thanks

Sir Alexistaiwo, have you ever paid for SKY TV in your life? If your answer is "NO", just keep quiet.

Lmao @ "They want to take over streaming", They were already making money of Hulu in the streaming game, Disney + is just a side business and it gained more customers during this lockdown (over 60 million), and because Disney + is family oriented it will gain a wider demographic of audience, so you might wait a very long time to see them fail.
In business "if you are good at something, become the template", Disney have been at the forefront of entertainment and they are what other organizations desire to be..From Theme parks to even sport (yeah they own ESPN), they full ground remain, so once again it might be a very long wait to see them fail.

Hulu is no where near Netflix. Hulu's lack of international coverage really limited it. Even in America, Netflix outpaces Hulu with 36 million more subscribers.

We will see how well Disney+ goes.

Netflix is still first when it comes to streaming. "Netflix and chill" is even the phrase for streaming at home. This means that Netflix is the template for streaming.

You must be really feeling yourself because you are a subscriber of Sky TV.

Why should I pay for Sky TV when I already have DSTV which I rarely watch unless football is on by the way?

OR you think I am so jobless that I will choose to spend the whole of my life 24/7 in front of the gadget screen alternating between Online TV subscriptions and Offline downloaded movies and TV shows?


The entirety of your posts on this discussion reeks of financial ignorance.
To top it all, you said that you want another person's multimillion business venture to fail because you just don't like it.
A responsible elder will never hope for the downfall of another unless he stands to profit directly from the aforementioned failure.
There is a reason why I chose not to reply your post before oyaskii did.


If this nonsensical gibberish you have been spitting since is one of the perks of being an elder, I will rather remain a toddler.

IRONY- In your last two posts, there was no financial insight or sense.

Elders argue with facts and not sentiment.

I admitted where I had biases and I also pointed out facts.

Because of your obvious bias you are missing the point by millions of miles. I was referring to HULU to show Disney was already present in the Streaming game.

You comparing Netflix who has been in the market since 1997 and Disney + which is less than a year isn't a fair comparism, can't also compare it with HULU because Disney mainly owns stakes there, so they are normally not involve in Prod.

Me using Template as a example wasn't in streaming sense , it simply means Disney as an entertainment entity (streaming and all) surpasses Netflix who's main stay is just Streaming and Distribution.

I won't be surprised if Disney + reaches the height of Netflix very soon because of Disney's fantastic business model and a huge catalog of entertainment over years that people of all ages wants to see.

I am sure their plan is to win more subscribers to Disney+ with this Mulan thing...most people will move to Disney+ just to see the movie, especially people that already owns a Netflix subscription
