News Round Up 2018

Rumor

Disney+ will debut in September 2019. They will look to do some testing in smaller markets first. The goal is to have it very similar to Netflix.

Curious why smaller markets first. It’s an online service why not available to all?

You obviously haven't had any interactions with Disney IT department...with their competence they should debut it in a small town in the midwest first.

I thought for sure it was starting on Oct 1 the start of the fiscal year. The sooner the better thou.im defintely getting it. Maybe smaller markets in September and everyone else oct 1. I haven’t heard anything about oct 1 but I know Disney likes to start things at the beginning of the fiscal year.

Last night was the first time in years the WatchESPN website has been watchable for me. I've attempted to watch it a few other times this year and the quality was so poor and so much buffering I had flash backs to dial up. Every time I thought "no way would I pay for a Disney streaming service if this the best they can do." So last night gave me a little hope for Disney+, although the quality was still poor vs Netflix.

Hopefully they will have 4K hdr for the Disney plus. I read Disney has been getting a lot of high ups from Netflix hopefully they will get some from their it department

So nice down here, but fog hit around 11 last night, hoping not on NYE for fireworks.

Calling it right now. It's called "Cursed Prince" because the prince Elsa loves has the power of fire. That is my prediction, write it down in the annals and give me credit later.

The.Cursed.Prince is the name of the Instagram account that leaked the picture, not the name of the movie.

That's an interesting question. Aside from English and Spanish, it looks like they also have the same materials available in Portuguese. But, as far as this lawsuit goes, I would bet it gets tossed fairly quickly because it all about Spanish-speaking guests.

A few more details on the lawsuit....

Interesting. I’ve never had much an issue. Sure if wasn’t your provider?

Does anyone know how I can get this on my LG OLED Smart TV?

I've found the Disney blog in the YouTube app, but don't see a link for this. Will it appear on NYE?

I've had this TV for a few months, but haven't really used the YouTube app.

I am on my iPad. It doesn't cover the posts when I use my PC, but on my iPad the ads cover some posts.

You’d have to do it through the YouTube app. I’ve done it before through mine.

I don't think it's so small.

I usually end up doing in through the blogpost and then streaming it to the TV. Sometimes they post ahead of time on their YouTube channel.

Ok, so when is time it will appear on the blogspot? I found the blog, I just didn't see anything about it yet.
