I fucking hate the shitty new Star Wars movies and shows, the Marvel movies and shows, the new Disney Animation movies and most of the new Pixar movies, is there still a reason to get this Disney+ thing?

They want to compete with Netflix and Hulu for subscribers. I'd imagine fire TV and the fire stick have a big chunk of those subscribers. They won't let that one go

There’s more to old Disney than that. Reportedly, their entire movie catalogue will eventually end up on there.

And every season of The Simpsons.

Selfishly, the silver lining here might be that YouTube TV gets an app on PlayStations.

I've been using it for three years. I guess I will get Youtube TV now, but I don't like the channel lineup quite as much.
