Disney announces $13 Hulu/Disney+/ESPN+ bundle effective November. (Can't post the link in mobile)

What can you get on ESPN+?

I've got Hulu already and plan on Disney+. If the cost to add no commercials on Hulu is the same or less with the combo then adding ESPN+ is essentially no cost for me.

Separate: Disney+ will be $7, ESPN+ will be $5. Hulu $6

ESPN+ apparently has select sporting events, video specials (Peyton Manning has a series), UFC related content...

Ad-free Hulu won't be available in a bundle. Everyone on Reddit is complaining about it and saying they will continue to pay the full $12.99/mo price for ad-free Hulu. And they can't seem figure out why Disney would be doing it this way....

ESPN+'s main draws are soccer and other non mainstream sports as well as a lot of G5(Sunbelt & MACtion) and FCS football. As a soccer fan it's a no brainer, but if not you may need to dig to see what you would be interested in.

Well if you can't upgrade to add free on Hulu then this bundle is a nonstarter for me. That's far more important to me than ESPN+ based on what heddleston said.

If Disney could include Spotify Premium into that bundle as well then I would gladly pay for it.

The Disney/ESPN/Hulu bundle is ad-supported Hulu.

Right now ESPN+ does nothing to move the needle.

I have Hulu ad-free for $12/month and would spend that every day over $6/month for the ad-based Hulu.

As it stands I will likely just add Disney+ on its own unless they have a bundle that includes ad-free Hulu.

I think I will just add Disney + and take a break from Netflix for awhile.

$7/mo for Disney+ on its own?

That's half of what I thought it would be. I'm sure they'll inevitably raise rates, but that's a very reasonable starting price.

I'd probably pay 25$ for Disney + all ESPN.

Yup, it's the same cost as the MLS coverage that it replaced.

And this is basically what we're already paying for Hulu and ESPN+ so no brainer.

I'm down for Disney+ for the kids content and Star Wars. Like others, ESPN+ doesn't help me unless they add Cycling content and that's mostly through NBC Sports.

at what point does ESPN begin to offer their full lineup in a streaming capacity, outside of watchESPN via cable/satellite

I'm actually curious what you'd get with ESPN+ if you didn't have another cable/streaming package with ESPN?

Soccer is the main thing. You won't get sports on their network of channels.

I'd probably go for this if it were ad-free Hulu. I'm willing to accept ads on live TV, but not streaming.

It annoys the heck out of me that ESPN has been moving so much content to ESPN+ that used to be included if you had the various ESPN channels on cable. I love soccer, but as a result of what they're doing I'm just watching less of it. I'm not gonna get cable, ESPN+, Fox's premium soccer offering, and NBC Gold so that I have access to every soccer game on the planet (and there may be other channels I'm neglecting to mention). I'll just watch less and they'll have fewer ad views.

Anyway, if for $13 I'd get the new Disney, Hulu w no ads, and ESPN+, I would see enough value to go for it. Right now I don't subscribe to any of their services.

Do we know if Disney+ will have ads?

I'm curious if Disney will drop their original content all at once (binge style) or if they will do a slow burn on releasing shows.

They will do drops and will rotate the classics in and out of the vault

You may be right, and I can go right on not giving them my money.

This is the real question. This is the first season since they introduced it. They have been shoving a ton of content to ESPN+, for understandable reasons.

It was available last college football season. It was just a bunch of mid-major games on ESPN+.
