It was entirely expected that the D23 Expo of Disney it would mostly be about the upcoming one Disney + streaming service which will make its debut on 12 November 2019 with a subscription price € 6.99 / month.
Η The company has made many announcements for new productions (already we saw those of Star Wars), while confirming that in the premiere there will be more than 500 movies and 7500 episodes of series, with original productions, blockbusters (MCU) and the entire Pixar library.
Disney + applications
Last week we learned that the Disney + will have separate applications for Android, iOS, Xbox One, Apple TV, PS4 and Roku, while today we have the opportunity to get a taste of the user interface. Disney aims to provide a clean and easy-to-use environment regardless of the device the user uses. In addition, a combination of group of people and machine learning algorithms will tailor the suggested content to the user's preferences, as is the case with Netflix.
Disney + UI
On the Disney + homepage we will see a carousel with large images that will rotate to display new and remarkable series and movies. Then there will be separate sections with films per production studio and not per genre, so that the user can more easily find what he wants (eg MCU or Lucasfilm films). Hovering over the image of a movie or series will start a short video to get a taste of the content, while clicking on it will take you to the separate page that includes a short written summary, some extras and related movies.
Disney + Originals
Of course, Disney + will have a separate section for the Original productions, wanting to emphasize the new material that can be watched on the service. The Mandalorian and High School Musical: The Series will be available at the premiere, while dozens of productions are in the works that will be added gradually. Among them are Ms. Marvel and She-Hulk, but also a new production by Lizzie McGuire. Also of interest is the ability to create profiles for children under 7 who organize content by character, such as Mickey Mouse or Disney Princesses.
4K, HDR, Dolby Atmos on 4 devices at the same time!
In the most technical issues, its implementation Disney + for mobile devices will support downloads for offline watching with an unlimited number of movies and episodes. The only limit is the storage space of your device. Also keep in mind that streaming is always done in 4K, HDR and Dolby Atmos audio with the standard subscription of € 6.99 / month, while will be allowed simultaneous streaming to up to 4 devices per account!
Disney enters the streaming services market very dynamically with a very good subscription price compared to its competitors. However, it is rumored that Disney will be able to keep subscribers longer in its service because it will not provide all episodes of the series at once (like Netflix), but will publish them on a weekly basis.
