From what data I can pull they have roughly 125M subscribers, so it’s about 1.4%. This still doesn’t sound a lot, but it’s effect is exaggerated because of their business model: the majority of their cost is for producing shows and movies, i.e. costs that don’t scale with the subscriber count. The cost of serving each subscriber is almost negligible. They need some number of subscribers to break even and every subscriber beyond that is their profit margin. Losing a bunch of subscribers directly cuts into their profit.
How many of those are through add-on deals like they offer through Verizon? I’m curious how discounted it is through them (some plans offer Disney+ for “free” I believe) and how much that inflates the subscriber rate.
Great question. I used to be able to authenticate to dis ey plus but not vide material with my Hulu creds after the merger which I was exploring for vulns. Did t find much. Plausible though.
And there’s why they “unfired” him.
Losing roughly a quarter of a billion per year in revenue makes them rethink things.
—— 9.99 per month for Disney basic 15.99 for Disney plus.
Just for easy math average those two so $12.99 per month.
$12.99 x 1,700,000 x 12 months = $264,996,000
And how many of those resubscribed, since Disney obviously learned their lessen.
Fuck Disney. If you didn’t know who they were, you do now. Publicly traded companies care about one thing:
I was kind of shocked how many people on here resubbed a day later and told others to do the same because they got the message.
Not this guy. I’m ok with one less subscription.
That was his best joke when he came back:

It’s less than 1% of their subscribers.
It’s a drop in the bucket. Sadly.

And yet it was still enough.
If true, that depressing
Just google how many subscribers they have. They’re public. It’s available info.
It’s just shy of 1 percent.
