They’ve picked up some good library content there.
He was right, Disney+ is not a threat. I think I might reactivate my Stan account now.
Yeah wouldn’t be surprised if Disney buys into Stan eventually.
I’m not seeing Disney+ as a massive threat to be honest. Its ok, but it definitely doesn’t appeal to an adult audience in the same way Netflix/Stan do. I subscribe to all 3 to be honest, plus Hulu in the U.S and I leech of someone elses Prime and Kayo Account - I’m at my limit of subscriptions now I think.
It would appear Nine’s (Stan) relationship with Disney is ongoing, for content not suitable for Disney Plus.
Australia’s Hulu?
Only the 50 millionth person to say that now.
So Disney and Stan still have a relationship?
They obviously do because Disney product is on Stan.
I was winding you up Jbar.
Anyone think Stan could become like Hulu but in Australia?
I know everyone’s said this by now, but I can definitely see Stan being boosted by being in a relationship with Disney. Perhaps that’s why Stan were so coy when Disney+ was launched.
TBH, Stan is offering a much more compelling product for me than Netflix is at the moment.
Not hard to do.
It’s hard to tell when you’re just playing dumb sometimes.
You, shut up!
Until Disney turns psycho and stabs Stan in the back.
But seriously, if Disney ends up offering a second tier of programs or another streaming service with the rest of its catalogue, I could see Stan merging with that.
Could’ve fooled me
Who said I am playing dumb?
That was the whole point!
I do wonder how long Nine signed their Disney deal for? Stan obviously shorter than broadcast (as they knew Disney+ potential launch time a year out).
Assuming it’s around 3 years perhaps, using Seven’s ‘cherry pick deals’ in 2011 and again in 2013 with Sony as a precedent.
As this new NBCU output will be costing Nine a bucket load! Though doubtful anywhere near the quoted $200 million Hamish Turner told TVT they paid back in 1997 for their old WB exclusive output!
Yeah. You’re not smart enough to play dumb.
Buffy is the horrible HD remaster cropped version on Stan apparently.
It is quoted as $10-$15 million iirc.
