CNBC:
Disney's new streaming service will be called Disney+ and launch in late 2019, CEO Bob Iger announced on the company's earnings call Thursday.
The company announced in August 2017 it would pull all its movies from Netflix in 2019, and start its own streaming offering for its past titles. Disney also purchased Fox for $71.3 billion in cash and stock, further bolstering its library.
The service will also feature new, original shows and movies, including original Marvel and Star Wars series. Marvel fan favorite character Loki, played by Tom Hiddleston, will get an original series on the Disney+ service. A prequel series to Star Wars movie "Rogue One" about the character Cassian Andor, portrayed by Diego Luna, will also call the service home.
Are these streaming services the second coming of Cable?

That's bull... there is a lot of decent stuff out there. Some is even worth buying if it wasn't overpriced and full of BS DRM. Sadly, piracy is an answer.
I will admit to one thing though.... There is a ton of crap out there... regurgitated plot lines... complete lack of innovation, reality shows (though this version of House Hunters [NSFW-Language] [youtube.com] seems interesting)
It does not matter what type of media you prefer... Music, Video, Programs/Games... There are a few good titles... but to find them you have to wade through a ton of crap.
Now with 5 covid vaccine shots/boosters altering my DNA :P
