It doesn't surprise me to be honest. I'm going to stick with Netflix. I like Disney and all but I don't need a separate streaming service for their stuff.

It's all about the $$$$$$$.   Disney is big enough to start their own services.

Disney is so greedy... it's true.
I won't subscribe to a Disney service... isn't that basically ABC & ESPN anyway
I don't like the way their philosophy is heading so left after taking off Last Man Standing despite high ratings...

I'll stick with Netflix :)

It ends up being all about money. Disney thinks they can make more by providing their own streaming service. Time will tell. I am just sad that I don't have as easy access to their movies anymore.

I won't consider subscribing. I don't see what good it would do me if I can access any Disney adventures from elsewhere for less money.

The Big Boys can do whatever they want. It's always all about the cash.  Who knows what's going to happen in a year or so?  I would watch and wait.  Plus, you can always get free DVD's at the library.  There are several cost-free ways to entertain yourself:  Try nature/the outdoors.

That a bummer. I was hopping that I would see some good old Disney movies added on there eventually but I guess not.

I just found out that Disney will be pulling its content off of Netflix and starting their own streaming services by 2019.  For me this is a little frustrating because now I am going to have to pay for two services instead of one. 

How do you all feel about Disney's decision?  Will you subscribe to Disney's services and Netflix?

I could care less.  I don't pay for either one.  Makes sense though because it gives them more money.

It won't affect our family...but, if it did I'd be angry.  I hope that Disney gets a truckload of negative feedback...and perhaps thinks better of putting its loyal customers second and its shareholders first.

WHY?  Why would you be angry that they are doing something to make more money for THEIR company.  They are not going to change their mind because some people get mad.  Enough people will subscribe that it won't matter.  And if you get Disney thru Netflix then you are loyal to Netflix not Disney.  Just sayin'

It's probably the wave of the future. Every company is going to have their own streaming service eventually. Some probably won't have good enough content to last, but they'll all try it.

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

I feel like this is a bad decision... I mean, between Netflix and Disney, most people will pick to subscribe to Netflix and not Disney.
