What is Disney Plus? from amy smith's blog

Disney Plus is a multi-faceted streaming service that collects all of the Disney company’s major franchises into one family friendly service.

Discover the world of Marvel, explore Earth with Nat Geo, journey to a galaxy far far away with Star Wars and more for one low price.

Disney Plus & Amazon Fire TV

When Disney Plus was set to launch, it initially wasn’t going to be available on several streaming devices. Amazon Fire TV and Firestick included. But just before November 12, 2019, when DisneyPlus.com/Begin went live, it was reported that the companies indeed were able to strike a deal. There were, apparently, some disputes about the percentage of advertising space, but clearly, they were able to sort it out.

The Disney Plus app is also compatible with Amazon’s Alexa search function, which is great news for all Alexa users out there. This includes the content of Disney Plus. If you are trying to access your Disney Plus account via Amazon Firestick or TV and you’re not sure what to do, follow these steps:

1.       Go to the home screen of your Fire TV and select the Search option (top left corner).

2.       Type in “Disney+”.

3.       You’ll see it in the suggestions. Scroll down if you have to and then highlight the Apps & Games row.

4.       Select Disney+ and then select Get.

5.       Wait a bit until the app is installed.

6.       Select Open and run Disney+.

That’s all there is to it. Just keep in mind that this doesn’t mean you get a Disney Plus subscription for free. You still either have to become a subscriber or sign up for the free 7-day trial.

Disney Plus vs Amazon Prime

The major streaming services are all well-known corporations, and they’d like nothing more than to monopolize the industry. But there’s still a lot to sort out before that can happen. Disney Plus is the newest and it’s only fair to compare it to existing ones. Like Amazon Prime Video. How do they stack up against each other?

How much does Disney+ cost?

Disney+ costs $8 per month or $80 per year. However, Disney+ isn’t Disney’s only streaming service. Following its acquisition of 21st Century Fox, DisneyPlus.com/Begin also controls Hulu, and it also offers the sports-focused ESPN+. For $14, you can get a bundle that includes all three services, saving you $5 a month.
