After jacking up prices, Disney+ and Netflix consider offering free alternatives ~
Reaching "price-sensitive” customers with a free streaming service would generate more ad revenue and might drive up subscription sign-ups (as subscription numbers plateau).
Bleh.
Well, #Disney+ (and #Hulu) lost at least one customer yesterday. Perhaps lower your prices, Disney+, and don't be deceptive in your business practices if you want customers.
