The Mandalorian

There’s a deal this weekend on a 3-year Disney+ description. Saves $23/yr.
 
Disney+ Streaming service. It launches the same day this gets released: Nov 12, 2019
I'm in!
 
Looks like a cool series.

$6.99/mo for Disney+. About half the price of Hulu or Nexflix. Promising...I hope.

I was waiting for the "catch". Still, that series looks like it might be pretty good.

You can prepay for $141 for 3 years. That’s a little over $100 off the monthly rate.

I thought I heard they had a bundle with Hulu and/or ESPN for a little more, but I haven’t looked for that answer.
 
$100 off monthly fees? What’s the regular rate?

The bundle is Disney+, Hulu+, and ESPN+ for $12.99/month. I’m going to go this route.

Will there be more than just Disney programming?

I already have Netflix, Hulu, Sling, and Prime...

$6.99 a month over 3 years = $251
 
Hoping its available for purchase on iTunes. I’m not inclined to add yet another streaming service—especially one with limited content (i.e. ONLY Disney stuff).

That ^^^ I would be interested in as our Hulu is $12.93/mo with the no commercial upgrade. I need to go look for that deal...

Finally figured out how the $23/yr off and the 33% savings ended up being the same. Evidently instead of $6.99/mo, there was a 3-year subscription offer. Fine print from my welcome to D23 email:

This promotional offer of $46.99 per year, if accepted, entitles the bearer to a one-time discount of $69.00 off the regular price of a three-year subscription to Disney+ ($209.97).

So, instead of $250+ when paying $6.99/mo, there was a 3-year for ~$210. You get it for $46.99/yr, and offer is good through 9/2.

Unfortunately, Disney owns a lot more stuff than you think. They got us by the balls on this one.

I'll be very surprised if it's not available for purchase on iTunes and/or Amazon. Now, it *is* Star Wars and Disney--two powers that can combine to defy any law of economics and do something far from typical of any other product. Shows like Chernobyl and other studio-specific offerings have been available for purchase on other platforms. That said, Netflix originals aren't available on Amazon, and vice-versa.

I think I just talked myself into a knot.
 
I'll just wait for the capture and post streaming services. I ain't give Disney any more of my income directly. They have ruined several good franchises with their schtick. And love of all things deviant.
 
Just downloaded the app. Played the first 5 seconds of The Mandalorian to confirm it worked. :D

yep, they don't want people to sign up for a month, binge their favorite shows, then cancel and wait until next year. Netflix may have to stop releasing an entire season at once to prevent this.
 
I hate to say it, but I'm probably just going to go back to e-piracy.
I was honest for a lot of years. Been a faithful netflix subscriber, have amazon prime, had hulu for a while too...
but with all these different studios launching their own services instead of going through one of the other ones like before... I'm not going to pay for all of them.
Maybe I'll just watch less stuff.

What you just said. This Mandalorium looks great, I won't give Disney my money.
 
I bit the bullet and paid for a month. You get 7 days for free. I've spent $7 on worse stuff.

And then wait and see HBO Max when it’s released in ~6 months.
 
Yep $13, it was on the front page of the Disney+ website, just under the regular $6 (IIRC) subscription.

Trying the free trial and it’s having issues. Onl half the titles are available, most of them are throwing an error code. :(
 
Hopefully the bounty hunters won't be teenage girls, like the leader of the bandits/pirates in the Han Solo movie.

But Disney is just like the rest of Hollyweird, so I'm sure they'll sneak a shemale in there at some point.
