Disney Will Start Cracking Down on Password-Sharing for Disney+ Accounts in June — GeekTyrant
Apr 14, 2024
If you’ve been sharing your passwords for Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+, with friends or family Disney is going to start cracking down on that this summer in June.Disney‘s streaming services will want you to pay up for anyone outside your main household who’s illicitly piggybacking on the services… or face potentially getting disconnected.During an interview with CNBC, Disney chief Bob Iger, said they will “be launching our first real foray into password sharing” enforcement. The initial launch will be “just a few countries in a few markets, then it will grow significantly with a full rollout in September.”The whole reason for this is so the company can make more money and achieve “double-digit margins” in its streaming business over the long term. They are hoping to “achieve Netflix-like margins of 15%-20% by 2027.” According to the updated subscriber agreements for Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+: “Unless otherwise permitted by your Service Tier, you may not share your subscription outside of your household.” The term “household” means the collection of devices “associated with your primary personal residence that are used by the individuals who reside therein.”The terms go on to say: “We may, in our sole discretion, analyze the use of your account to determine compliance with this Agreement. If we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have violated this Agreement, we may limit or terminate access to the Service and/or take any other steps as permitted by this Agreement.”Iger also talked about combining Hulu on Disney+ saying: “We need the technological tools to lower churn, create more stickiness. It’s things like recommendation engines, getting to know our customers better. We need to reduce the cost of marketing. We need to reduce the cost of customer acquisition to get the margins up, obviously.”Via: Variety
