I just cancelled my Disney+ yearly subscription which expires next month. I realized the Mandalorian is the only must-see thing on the channel and I found a site where I can view it for free. Disney got enough cash out of me for the one year subscription plus $30 for a movie I will no longer have access to. It really was a big misstep that made people feel tricked.

I don’t care that Apple and Amazon get Mulan. It’s the fact that I paid a premium to get early access for my girls because Disney+ states Mulan will not be available until December 4 unless you opt for that Premier Access. It’s still listed that way on Disney+. Well, I may not be the brightest bulb but I’m pretty sure it’s not December. I would have preferred to purchase it last week on iTunes for the rental price I paid on Disney+. Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the house of mouse is all about the all mighty dollar, but I think they may have did some harm to themselves here. Seriously if you paid $30 (plus your $7 month sub fee) for Mulan to be able to watch it for like 48 hours, and then a month later you can buy it at Apple and other online places for $30 and keep it, that is going to off some of your sub holders, like Grails. I don't see Grails being the only one to cancel because of this. Will it be enough of a dent to hurt Disney? No, it won't, but that is bad business and the now have very little chance of getting some of these people back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch it as often and as many times as you wish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you choose to cancel for whatever reason in the future then Mulan is no longer yours. I’ve been weighing it before I canceled. I already owned all the Star Wars movies and my favorites from Marvel on iTunes. The Mandalorian was the only thing really keeping me there.

Part of what has set Disney+ subscribers off is they were originally told for the purchase and monthly fee, only you get Mulan on-going. Now that Disney has expanded the release out to other streaming providers, all they have to pay is the one-time fee and nothing else as iTunes, VUDU, Fandango, Google Play are all free portals (no subscription fee).

That makes sense. id be pissed as well if I bought it. I am waiting until December for it to enter regular Disney+ Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
