We learned that Disney may soon take a closer look at password sharing and has plans to increase the price of its ad-free Disney+ tier. Now, we have an update on a new Disney+ option that may appeal to new customers.
After taking a closer look at the data, Disney+’s subscriber count increased by 800,000 (excluding Disney+ Hotstar, with saw a 24% loss in subscribers). That said, the company saw an overall loss in subscribers. Although Disney+ lost subscribers, the average monthly revenue increased from $7.14 to $7.31 “due to higher per-subscriber advertising revenue.” Importantly, Bob Iger noted that about 40% of new Disney+ subscribers are choosing the ad-supported option.
