Discussion Disney+ (Disney Plus) - News & Updates

[Sparker0i]

Hotstar Is No.1 In India. But They Don't Provide The Video And Audio Quality Like Netflix And Prime.

Do understand that hotstar optimizes a lot on the technology which streams the videos. That means the ability to stream a higher quality video at a lower data. Read their tech Blog for a better understanding.

Hotstar is developed for a country that needs as much content possible in as little data. It's optimizations work that way. If you want utmost high AQ, hotstar is not for you..

From the announcement to till now, many media and others are saying Disney+ arrives as a rival to Netflix. But how in all aspects? I don't think Disney plus have any adult contents while Netflix has much. In the case of HBO Max, we can agree.

Bro, Optimization should be an option. We don't mind, even if it's enabled by default. However, there must be a way to disable it if anyone wants to. Restricting (Optimizing in their words) the content for everyone is not the right way to do it. They must allow content to be streamed in the highest quality (Both Video and Audio) if people wants to!

Is there a possibility that we can get Disney+ with US subscription (like if a friend of mine in US has a subscription and I share the ID as we do in Netflix) or is it IP address specific.

You'll probably need a VPN (a good paid one) for that.

It's not an issue with Netflix, because Netflix is also available in India. So you are able to watch Netflix in India with an US account. But only the Netflix India Catalogue that is.

But that's not the case with Disney+. It is not available in India. So, you'll need a VPN.

Disney+ India Prices Spotted

As noted previously, the streaming service has not launched in India. Walt Disney has not shared any details about launching the service in the market at the time of writing. In fact, past reports have speculated that the company may bring all Disney+ content to Hotstar. It is likely to be limited to the Premium segment.

Amidst the lack of clarity, BGR India has likely discovered the potential price of Disney+ in India. We stumbled on the pricing for the service while trying to access it in India. So, Walt Disney is likely to price the Disney+ video streaming service at Rs 590 per month or Rs 5,900 per year. The yearly subscription will allow users to save 17 percent on the monthly subscription. In addition, the company is also likely to offer a free 7-day trial to users at launch. All this information likely means Dinsey+ may actually launch as a separate service in the coming months.
