Not bad, I heard they bought up most of the content that Netflix has been using for the last few years.

 

Their goal - to steal all the market I suspect, hence the low price.

Not that low ......... same price as HBO Go.

 

I just pre-registered for 35bht/month using my AIS phone number.

Got the confirmation SMS but no details on how to pay.

Currently the Disney+ app doesn't seem to be available to download here in Thailand from the Google Play Store.

 

Presumably this will change once the service is officially launched??

I had the channel for a year while I was in the US and after the first week that I watched everything that was interesting to me , there was nothing else to watch. Most everything good I had seen already. So after the year subscription was over I cancel it. 

But that's just me and my particular interests, others might find it interesting, it is certainly cheap enough.

Perhaps if they offered a free one week trial period without me having to give them any credit card info, I would try it to see if they got any new content that would be of interest to me.

Pertty amazing price.

 

I think it's $80 per year in the U.S. $7.99 /month.

 

Note that special releases can be extra charge; Premium Access. I think Black Widow will be in this category at $30. So early access, premium access lasts 15 - 90 days. 

 

No clue what the local library will look like? 100%? Can't imagine evverthing  has been subbed and dubbed yet?

They take the 35bht from your AIS SIM credit.

No credit cards.

My first 4 months (2nd month free) will be covered by a 100bht top-up.

Seems bit limited but has Star Wars and marvel I suppose and for 35bht a month can’t go wrong . Think it’s £9 a month in uk .

No, they own a lot of content that Netflix has been using for the last few years, and are simply taking it back instead of renting it out.
