Disney has long dominated the market of children and family programming. The name has instant recognition among most of the world and has been the leader of children’s entertainment for years. The company that started under Walt Disney has grown into a revenue giant between its tv channel, movies, and theme parks. But one new addition to the family could be coming in the form of a streaming service with exclusive access to the media the company has produced.

Disney plus
The streaming service will be called Disney+ (pronounced “plus”) and will offer to users all the old school classics that everyone remembers growing up along with new features. It will include big screen movies, tv shows, and Disney channel original movies also referred to as Dcoms. Some of the confirmed media that will be included on the platform will range from Hannah Montana to Star Wars. Along with these will be the assets Disney has bought including the Marvel movies, sure to be a popular incentive for debating consumers.
There will be a few stipulations to access in that some of the older insensitive movies or scenes, particularly that of those with racist roots, will be excluded moving forward. The company has worked to make reparations for past offenses by changing or censoring old content that doesn’t age well. But, despite this, the company’s vast network will provide a wide selection for users to choose from. It will work to bring all the things people love about Disney to one place.
Streaming TV
The streaming service is set to launch in November according to a spokesperson and representative for the company. Due to its limit of purely Disney offerings, the company has set the price lower than competitors such as Netflix – which will be a massive draw for a number of individuals. The price is reportedly being set at $6.99 a month which is a good contrast to the prices of other streaming platforms on the scene.
Disney family
While this venture is new to the Disney family, there is no doubt that the company will approach the project with the same tireless dedication with which it has been associated for decades. The legacy started with Walt Disney but over the years the company has morphed into a media giant that surpasses expectations at every turn. From their nostalgic old school shows to the heartbreaking moments of their films, there will be something available for everyone on Disney+.
