Just when I was getting comfortable with YouTube TV. That price increase is crazy. $29 to $49 for Discovery channel(s)?
I am officially in the market for a better option. Again.

Again. how were you getting it for $29?...it was $40 (or $35 for those who were grandfathered in after the first round of added channels brought the price up)

Might be 35....I know for damn sure it isn't 40.
Nope...checked most recent bill. $29.

It started out at $35/mo, and went up to $40/mo back in March 2018, but anyone who joined before then got to keep the $35 price. Unfortunately, with the increase to $50, they are doing away with all grandfathering. The price for most members is just going up $10/mo for the added channels. Not great, but hardly the increase you're going to face because you were somehow getting an insanely good deal before.

You get 15 seconds each to answer 50 questions. You can click to enter your answer to save some time if you want, bit I recommend giving your brain a few extra seconds to recover between questions

I know I cut the cord early, and they did try to raise my rate once before (I found an e-mail chain) and they relented. If the "right" price is 35 or 40, then I suppose I can't complain too much if it goes to 49 if I've been the beneficiary of some glitch or early adopter rate. Not sure it's worth it at $49, though. Will have to do all the silly math about TV/Internet packages to see what makes the most sense.

Sounds like Disney+ will be the Netflix killer Nah they can easily coexist. Netflix has more than enough content. I'll probably have both. I might end up getting rid of Hulu - that's probably the streaming service that will be hit hardest, tbh.

Considering they’re gonna have a lot of the Fox library I believe, I could imagine that does some damage to Netflix. Plus they’ve said they’ll be the exclusive streaming home of the entirety of the simpsons which is not insignificant

Hulu has The Simpsons. Or at least recent seasons. And Hulu has a ton of the Fox content. I think you may be confusing the two.

Alright, so it might be a Hulu killer. I suppose this shows why I use my parents Netflix account instead of paying for my own . Hulu only has a handful of new Simpson’s episodes, I think you can only get the full show on FXX streaming or something dumb like that. However it’s getting pulled from that service and put on Disney + which is rad. I seem to remember there are an assload of new Disney movies on Netflix and those will all get pulled

Yeah the Disney content will definitely impact Netflix, but they have more than enough original content at this point that I don't think most people will be choosing between the two services.
Hulu has had a deal with Fox and CBS for years - I think the most recent three seasons of the Simpsons are available as well as the entire runs for practically every other show on Fox or previously on Fox, so I'd guess they'd lose all of that.

I have zero desire to give Disney any sort of monthly money. Just about anything I care to watch of theirs I have on physical media.

If their physical media didn’t remain pretty much right at MSRP all the time I’d be inclined to go this way as well. I was part of the Disney movie club for a bit so I was able to get a decent amount of stuff from that for pretty cheap, but I think you can only run that offer once

I don't watch a lot of tv or movies so I'm mostly indifferent to Netflix but will definitely get Disney+ for the kids stuff alone but I'd personally pay for some of the original stuff they're planning. The Mandalorian and the Sandlot series are more in my wheelhouse than anything on Netflix but YMMV

Oh shit, I forgot about The Mandalorian. Very excited for that

I mean, what do you really need outside of Up, Wall-e, and Incredibles 1? I suppose Brave, Moana, and Inside Out all merit inclusion as well.

Also very much dislike the new ads during shows that you can't skip through. Still, that you can share it with up to (I think) six people makes it a steal.

Isn't Hulu free with Spotify tho? No one needs to get rid of Hulu.

Everything I read mentioned Disney has a majority stake ownership in Hulu and will likely be bundling Disney+. Hulu, and ESPN+.

The free version of Hulu that comes with Spotify is ad-supported. Commercials play with anything you try to watch.
