I could buy every Disney Plus movie and Tv show I’m interested in on Bluray and still not come up to 140 dollars

I wonder: if Disney+ used peer-to-peer and had no DRM, a bit like TankieTube or whatever… How much money would each user need to pay for the service to break even?

if i glanced correctly at report of 2024, roughly 1/3 (5.5 billion listed as production costs at disney+ over 18 billion in total operating costs) (margins at disney+ are 1%, so its lmao either way, 140 million over 18 billion costs/subscriptions), but i dunno what kinda of headspace hulu occupies (8.5 billion in production costs), then its roughly 20-30% cheaper of 2024 prices.

I've seen this twice now and haven't gotten it myself. Is it only certain plans?
Could depend on when you started your subscription.
It’s almost doubling in price? Bruh
