What is Disney Plus?
Disney Plus (or Disney+), launched on November 12, 2019, is a streaming platform and television network owned by Disney. Current service bundles also pair the platform with other Disney-owned (or at least owned interest) platforms ESPN+ and Hulu. Streamers will find a plethora of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and even National Geographic content stretching across decades of theatrical and television releases.
Disney+ is a much more functional and heavily contented follow-up to Disney’s previously maintained Disney Now service that included various Disney shows (mostly for children) and required a TV subscription for most of its content.
Things To Note
- You must be an active Disney Plus subscriber.
- You can create an account and subscribe via the Disney Plus website.
- Disney Plus (Disney+) is a different service than Disney Now
