The more sugar, the sweeter. This saying can be applied in any field. As Netflix has been expanding the catalog available on its platform, the price of the subscription has been increasing practically every year. The last video streaming service to hit the market, Disney +, has taken less than a year to complete. announce the first increase in the price of your service.
A few hours ago, Disney announced an important change in its streaming platform, a change that involves the integration of the Star platform in Disney +. In exchange for this integration, users will have to pay 2 euros more per month in Europe. In the United States, the rise is only $ 1.
Disney distributes its catalog of series and movies in the United States through Disney + and Hulu, while in Europe to distribute content for adults (so to speak) will use the Star platform instead of Hulu as previously rumored.
Star will offer the catalog that Disney + does not include. Access to Star will be protected so that the little ones cannot have access to this type of content. With the price increase in Europe, including Spain, the monthly Disney + service will cost 8,99 euros, for the current 6,99 euros.
In other countries, Star will arrive independently, so that users will have the opportunity to hire it independently, although it has not been specified whether it can be hired independently without the need to also hire Disney + (something unlikely).
The catalog that Disney + offers us today is intended for the smallest of the house, but not to an audience adult. With the incorporation of Star, Disney wants users to have a motivation to continue paying the monthly or annual subscription, by offering an interesting discount when hiring it. The catalog offered through Star may already be extensive, since otherwise, many will be the subscribers who they will not think twice and will unsubscribe.
