Disney: info, prices, subscriptions, movies, series … All about the streaming platform

Disney+, it is an incredible catalog of wealth, as much by the number of content available as by its variety. In France, Disney+ offers its subscribers More than 1,500 films, and 700 series titles, among which the Disney+ Originals. And again, the catalog is enriched every month with the appearance of new content.

Disney+ will charge you 33% more expensively

Faced with success across the Atlantic of the offer with advertisements, Disney will extend it to the rest of the globe, while adding a few euros to the already existing offer.

Subscriptions to inexpensive streaming platforms and without advertisements are doomed to disappear? On the one hand, Netflix now hides its cheapest advertising subscription, even going so far as to suppress it in the United States and the United Kingdom. On the other Disney+ also announces the upcoming arrival of its offer with advertisements on the whole globe.

Already offered to American users since the end of December, the offer will indeed see the light of day in France and in the rest of Europe. This formula, available from November 1, will be offered at a rate of 5.99 euros per month. It will include access to all content on the platform, two simultaneous screens and a Full HD 1080p resolution. It will however be impossible to download content upstream to be able to view them offline.

Three offers soon available

And in addition to this new offer, Disney+ has also decided to update the prices of its unique subscription already existing. So far, the Disney+ subscription was offered at 8.99 euros per month (89.90 euros per year) for access to all content. Now, the Disney streaming platform will offer three separate subscriptions, including that with advertising, in the same way as Netflix.

The standard subscription will be available at a rate of 8.99 euros and will allow the subscriber to benefit from all content in the catalog, two simultaneous screens and content downloads. The Premium subscription will be offered at 11.99 euros per month (119.90 euros per year) and will significantly offer the same services as the standard subscription, but with four screens simultaneously plus an image and a better sound quality.

Note that current subscribers will see their subscription automatically switched to premium from November 1, therefore from 8.99 to 11.99 euros per month if no change is made.

During the dissemination of the quarterly Disney results, Bob Iger, director of the company, said that the previous price increase had had no significant effect on the number of subscribers. A source of hope, while the company is going through a bad pass with a loss of 18 million subscribers during the last quarter.

With all Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, Marvel and National Geographic classics in the catalog, Disney+ has solid arguments to seduce fans of these universes. In addition, the launch of the star section, offering more adult content, has come to expand a very family -friendly catalog.

In June 2022, the Disney+ catalog offered more than 1900 programs, films, series and documentaries combined.

8.99 € per month or 89.99 € per year, this is what must now pay to subscribe to Disney+. The addition of star has increased the addition of € 2 per month. However, this single price remains more contained than that of Netflix, its main competitor (17.99 € monthly for the premium formula).

• 4 simultaneous screens and 4K compatible

The ultra-high definition, 4 screens simultaneously and up to 7 user profiles for this price, here is undoubtedly another good point for Disney+. It’s better than its main rivals, Netflix in mind (again).

Catalog films and series

Between Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, and Disney classics, the catalog of the new platform is filled with classics. Among the exclusives, let us still quote the series Star Wars: The Mandalorian, Wandavision, Falcon and the winter soldier, Star Wars: The Bad Batch, Loki, Hawkeye or the recent Boba Fett’s book ..

Star embodies Disney’s strategic turnaround+. Without denying its identity, the platform completes its offer to get closer to the other Cadors on the market, Netflix in mind.

Many series are available in this special section. here is a non -exhaustive list programs :

To this is also added first -choice films, of which here is a non -exhaustive selection.

The novelties of the month

Each month, a number of films, series and documentaries join the Disney catalog+. We also draw the exhaustive list in the article dedicated below.

Disney’s strengths+

• Disney and Pixar animation classics in abundance
• Other very popular licenses to exploit (Star Wars, Marvel, etc.)
• A very attractive offer for families
• A small price and interesting features
• Disney, a powerful and popular brand

Disney weaknesses+

Now let’s move on to the supposed weaknesses of the service. You can also find our detailed explanations by following this link.

• Even if the platform is in progress, it will still be necessary to be patient to take advantage of an offer of original creations as dense as competition.
• Less varied content than its rivals, even if the launch of Star Rebat a little cards. Disney becomes an increasingly generalist platform. And that’s good.
• A more limited catalog in France.
• No Disney+ without Widevine L1.

Why the catalog is less full than in the United States ?

The French catalog is different from that offered to American customers. For what ? Largely due to an obstacle called media chronology.

The French system in force requires window operating windows for each broadcasting mode (television, VOD, SVOD, etc.) after the end of the in-room diffusion. Clearly, free or paid television channels, on -demand video services, streaming platforms by subscription … The chronology of the media fixes to each one period to be respected before being able to offer it to spectators.

For paid streaming platforms like Netflix or Disney+, this period is set at 36 months because they do not directly contribute to the financing of French audiovisual production. Recent films like Avengers: Endgame, Star Wars IX: the ascent of Skywalker, Captain Marvel And others are therefore not yet available in the catalog.
