Disney+ is already delivering on some of the promises it predicted months ago. The streaming service sent out an email to its users in Spain announcing changes in your terms. And since you probably haven’t read the document, we’ll tell you what the two main changes are. all plans.
Goodbye, shared accounts: Disney+ has announced that you can no longer share an account with someone who doesn’t live in the same household as you. The service, like Netflix before it, is now available screen viewing restriction from different houses.
Moreover, in the new conditions we can also read that integrates additional payment in case you want to share an account. Come on, same strategy as Netflix. In the case of Disney+ it’s called “Additional access‘ and will allow another screen to display content outside the main home at the same time.
In the email sent Disney+ says the measure will go into effect within the next 30 days.so if you share an account you will be in trouble very soon.
Disney+ May Include Ads in All Plans, Even Paid Ones
The most surprising thing about the new terms is not the account sharing restriction that has been announced for months, but the update that allows include advertising in all tariff plans. That’s right, Disney+ will now be able to include ads. even in tariff plans.
The terms do not specify how much, when or for what reason, but they do specifically state advertising. That is, paying extra for Disney+ will not free you from watching ads, although they will most likely do not interrupt the broadcast from a TV series or movie.
In fact, it is possible that this text will be implemented in order to integrate advertising and promotions related to Disney itselffor example, the release of new series or internal promotions.
But, of course, even if it is internal advertising, it is still advertising that will be shown in the plans. which Disney+ itself specifically marks as “Ad-Free.” We’ll have to wait and see how this new provision will be integrated into payment plans, although there’s reason to believe that users won’t like this new feature at all.
Many changes, but all for the worse
Constant change is typical for video streaming services. We’ve seen it for years with Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, or Max (HBO): their terms start out very attractive, but then they lose features, prices go up, and things like shared accounts get blocked.
Disney+ is following exactly the same path.because a few months ago she raised her prices in Spain and now she has received another blow to the table, changing the terms and making her plans even less attractive.
