Disney+

I wonder is it a permanent thing, or is it just a hangover from deals agreed years ago before Disney Plus was in the pipes, and will be on it once the deals expire

Sort of like how a lot of MCU movies aren't on it either due to different streaming deals

Prelaunch price of 59€ for 12 months is being advertised

Where is it being advertised? Can’t find the app anywhere yet

The 59.99 gives you four users, I thought I’d read you can have more than that. Does anyone here know how many they are planning to let users have in Ireland or is that four it?

Wonder how much the monthly fee is. No mention of it in the site. Are they even offering one?

It doesn't like revolut!! Did anyone sign up with revolut?

That 59.99 offer is good value/ €5 a month, I'll be signing up for that. Surprised at how many people see The Simpson's as a deal breaker. Hasn't it been poor for years?

The earlier episodes are classics.

Whats annoying about it not being on Disney+ due to Sky owning the rights is that Sky haven't made it available online. I presume Sky's rights don't allow it.

I think I'll go month to month with this. There's some stuff I want to see, but not a year's worth.

Will be interesting to see if you can use VPN (when travelling) to access other countries

Looks like Disney plus will be coming to Sky Q and be like netflix an integrated setup

Details still TBC as Sky not officially announced yet

Keeping the post 2009 Simpsons away from the people is a public service though.

I'd go further back than that. First 10 years were & still are brilliant. The rest has been getting steadily wo year by year

They’ve dropped a pretty big hint that the Simpsons are going to be on it...

Strange as they’d been noticeable by their absence
