>>
>>94512325
Okay. I mean, I get why DC is doing it. They have so much back content stretching back to the Superman cartoons in the 40s. They're packaging their streaming service with their digital comic reader. And they're merging with AT&T, so they're able to get it on every smart phone and tablet really easily and even bundle it up with a Direct TV subscription if they want. Now if you want any Disney media you have to have a dedicated streaming service? That's just going to turn everyone off.

Alright /co/, how long do you give Disneyflix before they shut it down and go back to Netflix?

>>94512627
It's more or less cable or companies that also own channels trying to hedge their content in a way where they can still control all of it. Netflix is a big player, but all these companies can't rely on Netflix and let them get too big.

How is it fucked up? And they're not working on them "at the same time", things get produced gradually, Antman and wasp started filming only recently

But even then they have their own building and stuff and the writers, directors etc. can hang around whenever they want and exchange ideas on how to proceed, like how Gunn and Favreau are helping the Russos with Infinity War. It's pretty cool actually

>>94512723
I really hope DC's new thing also include comics because I'm tired of Comixology, but I'll probably still subscribe to it.
Considering if WB backs it AND if AT&T actually get a hand in this, it's almost a little scary to think about the potential of this and the potential if it fails

It was only a matter of time before Disney did this. There is more money to be made directly, screw keeping any kind of balance with the streaming services.

Soon every major network will have their own pay to use streaming service and the quality of most will be garbage, with only one or two reasons to have it.

You know, there's getting to be so many different streaming services, that to subscribe to them all to get access to everything you'd want to watch, soon enough we'll be back up to paying $110 dollars a month just like we used to with cable & satellite.

The more things change, the more things stay the same.

This is the end game of streaming services, epix was the first to pull shit from Netflix which lost them lots of big movies from their catalog.

>>94513435

This is going to be a disaster in the making. With multiple steaming services all out at the same time, that means people will have to pick and choose what they want most. Are the Netflix Marvel shows really worth $20 a month for example? Episodes where nothing happens and then a weak finale? Like, all the Netflix shit has been getting weaker and weaker after DD Season 1, and now they want us to pay exclusively for those shows?

No thanks. I'll just stick to the movies.
>>
>>94513310
Come to think of it, this could crash the entire entertainment industry across the board (outside video games). More services are going to pop up, and not all of them will be sustainable. We could be seeing the beginning of the end of a lot of studios and possible comics.

>>94513384
They'll never stop the MCU
Have no fears we've got stories for years

>>94513850

There's a decent chance of Thunderbolts or something equivalent or similar in idea involving a group of villains or former villains happening. It seems like Marvel is at least keeping the possibility open.

-The Raft introduced
-Zemo didn't die
-Everett Ross and Thaddeus Ross in Civil War
-Iron Man and Patriot using sonic weapons similar to what Songbird could use (sonic weapons were also in 2008 Hulk)
-Ghost is being introduced in Ant Man and Wasp

Marvel still has some heroes they can use besides the Fantastic 4 who aren't really popular outside the US and not even that popular in the US. If they make the Netflix and/or other tv shows non-canonical or change the movie timeline with time travel they can bring in those characters after they've increased in notoriety and just maybe have to deal with backlash for changing the timeline.

There's still villains that appeared in only one or a few series of particular comics that could be changed to be used as an overarching threat. There's also stuff like Chthon, Oblivion, some 'Abstract Entities', some Elders of the Universe, and Deviants.

The large majority of the people seeing the movies haven't read the comics or have much familiarity with villains that haven't been shown in a movie yet unless they are Spider-Man or X-Men villains. If they really wanted to, Marvel can use some characters that appear in very few comics, but are described as being very powerful or having interesting backgrounds. For example, Marvel could use the Exo-Mind as a villain or at least a danger to characters/people on Earth and even have Lifestones and/or Bloodstone fragments in various movies if they wanted to make movies that have a similar idea to Infinity Stones. This could work if they bring in Moonstone due to the stone that's her namesake.

Disney is pursuing a platform storytelling strategy, which means driving collective business success, rather than optimizing the returns on any one character, title or even franchise. Fracturing licenses across several services not only undermines this model, it creates a friction-filled customer experience where products, plotlines and audiences can easily fall through the cracks. Conversely, housing them under one (plus Disney’s owned & operated sites) creates “user synergies".

When the Netflix deal ends, I’d bet that the entire Disney catalogue will instantly move to a new Disney O&O service. The fact that it was all contained, used and watched in one place not only creates a stronger ecosystem around Disney content, it gives the audience a single point of transition. All of a sudden – and nearly a decade and half after Netflix, Amazon Video and Hulu launched – we’ll have a massively scaled Disney subscription service. And contrary to popular belief, insiders suggest it will include Disney’s Netflix series, too.

But this Disney subscription service will likely go far beyond just video content. It will also bundle in access to all Disney comics, books, apps, digital games and albums (Frozen!), as well as Disney’s network television portfolio. In addition, subscribers will benefit from discounted theme park passes and merchandise promotions, and in time, the ability to purchase ‘day & date’ theatrical content, too. The groundwork for this, though modest, already exists in Disney’s children-focused UK service Disney Life. While we’ll likely see individualized subscriptions at lower prices (i.e. everything Star Wars, everything Marvel), the core of the offering will be, in effect, Disney as a Service2 (“DaaS”). With new multi-media content released daily.
>>
I'm tired of streaming services endlessly fragmenting. Everybody is forming these exclusive deals and making their own services that do more harm than good for consumers and sooner or later people will just have enough of it and start pirating en-masse again.

I just want a Steam equivalent for movies and TV, where everything is on there, it's easy to use, and I just need to pay a flat fee. So many of these services with good exclusives have shitty apps or video players to the point where it's not even funny. Just give me ONE place to watch all your shit, dammit.

They hav a lot of movies but their catalog I would assume isn't nearly as vast as netflix and don't hit nearly as many demographics tothe point of keeping them around instead fjust losing them after one time subbing.

So like how Boomerang is doing?

I know having kids and nostalgia is a big thing, but isn't aren't the heavy hitters on streaming services usually exclusively adult content? Does Disney plan on going there themselves? I don't think they can just grab the Marvel Netflix shows since those are actually part of a Netflix deal.

No retard it could be a subscription service that would give people access to new comics. Obviously we don't actually know what it's gonna entail, but if it includes new comics then that is the road to killing Diamond

rumor has it at the time Disney was trying to outright buy Netflix when they made that deal. since that didn't happen there's no reason for them to stick around. also don't forget a couple of months after they made the Netflix deal, Disney took off several of their classic movies and then put them on Hulu

The lure of huge short-term profits is too much to ignore for some of these corporations.
>>
>>94513793

I think that streaming services that collapse would sell their libraries to more profitable services when the shuttered, they'd really have no reason not to at that point, aside from stuff they can actually make money selling on iTunes like Modern Family or The Big Bang Theory.

As for comics, you can watch attrition happening in real time with Diamond numbers every month. Neither Marvel or DC has managed to sell as many comics in a month as the new volume of One Piece sells in quite some time. And that's total combined sales of all new comics vs one really popular Japanese comic. And Japan is a much smaller market, so they're both clearly failing to turn box office success into sales of comic books. I think they will probably have to copy the manga industry's model, only digitally, to survive. There aren't enough people willing to pay $5 a month for a 22 page comic, so they're eventually going to have to try to attract many more readers at a lower price point in order to survive.
>>
>>94512723
you do realize that disney has much more media than DC right, every disney movie and cartoon series could be on it that's 50 years of movies and disney already has 2 disney channels with content that could easily fill up a streaming service
>>
>>94519941
a la carte channel selection was generally considered by knowledgeable people to increase costs for all but the lightest cable users. Once you lose the massive scale, your channel needs to go from costing a few cents to a few dollars to be profitable. Suddenly getting the same channels you were getting before costs three times as much. Same thing will happen with streaming. If Fox, NBC and ABC left Hulu to start their own streaming services like CBS (unlikely since they're all partial owners of Hulu, but bear with me) you're now paying $24 a month instead of $8-12.
>>
>>94512759
Netflix is also spending less and less on licensed stuff to focus more on the content they own, kinda seems like everyone is shooting themselves in the foot trying to make every penny they can
>>
>>94512842
WB and At&T though is still a small bit player compared to Amazon or Apple
>>
>>94513758
yeah, once Netflix lost all the Fox cartoons I went from watching it everyday to maybe 2-3 times a month, Netflix doesn't have enough original stuff to interest me enough to keep paying for it.
>>
>>94512438
They're already non-canonical. The only canonical thing are the movies.
>>
How do these companies not realize that all they're doing by fragmenting the services you need to use in order to get media legally, they're just pushing people towards piracy? If your shit isn't on Netflix, I'm going to pirate it, and honestly, with the amount of content that Netflix has been losing I've been considering even dropping my Netflix sub.
>>
So, I guess I'll just add disney movies to my netflix blu ray qeue and just rip them.

Thanks disney, you are making my plex server better!

They probably calculated that they'll gain more from doing this than lose via shedding customers to piracy.

I won't pay for more than 2/3 streaming services on a monthly basis, I won't.

When people take their ball and try to open their own netflix with hookers and blackjack and 1/10000 the content, I don't buy it, I just either don't watch their crap or I pirate it.

This is going to get worse. Eventually some people will group their streaming services together and sell them like a package deal, and we'll be right back to cable.
>>
>>94517929
if Rescue Rangers and the old Duck Tails end up on it, I'd cancel Netflix in an instant and sign up for Disney Stream instead

>They probably calculated that they'll gain more from doing this than lose via shedding customers to piracy.
I think this is only true short term. People are already getting tired of this shit, the streaming bubble is going to burst.
>>
>>94512325
Disney would have to have a pretty low price, like $5 or less, for me to be willing to subscribe more than a month new content drops. It'd also have to have old and/or legitimately rare Disney stuff uploaded. I meany every episode of Mickey Mouse Club, that Toontown show they had where two people would dick around in Toontown in Disneyland and then play Disney cartoons, specials promoting various films/parks, World of Color, etc.
>>
>>94524495
If they don't throw literally EVERYTHING on the service they won't even come close to having enough relevant content to be desirable.

Putting it all up isn't in Disney's playbook either, since they prefer doing this content scarcity crap.
>>

no one is going to sign up for a hundred different streaming services, even if it is Disney.

All they're doing is reigniting the peoples passion for piracy, especially now that the BitTorrent protocol finally got an upgrade.

>>94512584
Ever since people started wanting a la carte cable channels instead of bundles I knew this was the eventual result. Everyone's going to have their own service and it's not going to be all that cheap if you want to get a variety.

You know you can buy a hard drive for about the cost of 2 blu rays and store like 200 or more movies right? When everything is digital anyways paying for entertainment is a fools game.
>>
>>94534454
If no one pays for entertainment it goes away. You gotta respect those who do.
>>
>>94534499

It doesn't go away it shifts footing. As long as there is money to be made there will be companies looking to make it. That's how we got netflix in the first place. The market adapted to the consumers. Now the companies are trying to force the consumers to adapt to them and it's probably going to bite them in the ass eventually.
>>
>>94533003
then why do they make original movies and series? Amazon and Apple are in the 'we'll do anything if we think it makes us money" business
>>
>>94524495
If it's anything like DisneyLife (which is £5 a month) we can expect a $5-7 price point with access to literally every animated movie, a good chunk of the live action stuff, most of their TV shows, a good chunk of old remastered shorts, all the soundtracks, and live streams of the channels. I mean, this is what the UK service has so I don't see why the US one wouldn't have it as well, if not more.
>>
>>94533352
why are you and others so salty about this? you're losing recent movies (which you should have on bluray if you like them anyway) and a bunch of their shit tier movies. none of the vaulted titles are available aside fantasia so it's not like much of anything of value is being lost
>>
>>94534556
Netflix started out as "What if instead of going to a store with a limited selection to rent DVDs you could rent just about every movie ever from the internet?" which morphed into "What if you could do that without even bothering with the DVD?" which the movie industry frowned on (they prefer pay per movie over all-you-can-stream for a flat fee; using this method for physical media was permissible because you can only rent so many movies in a month) which led to "original series and movies plus whatever we can license"
