Disney is fully launched to the neck of Netflix , one of its great competitors in the world of streaming . This week has announced a new integrated service for $ 12.99 (11.57 euros), the same price as the standard Netflix package in the US , but with a much longer and more diverse content as they offer a joint subscription to three Platforms: Disney +, ESPN and Hulu .

With this offer, Disney CEO Bob Iger is committed to ending Netflix's monopoly and opening the way for other services. Also, this Tuesday has announced that the package will be available from November 12 in the US .

Iger has explained that "this is, right now, the most important project we have" and has said that he hopes to change the current streaming landscape . During the conference, he has been asked about the international expansion of his platforms, and explained that "for the moment there is nothing to announce", since right now they are focused on the US launch. Since the issue of licenses for both sports and the programs and movies that Disney + and Hulu will have are negotiated separately worldwide .

ESPN is one of the most popular sports streaming services in the US that includes live matches to the professional baseball, soccer and UFC league. For its part, Hulu is a subscription service with original series such as The Handmaid's Tale , which have catapulted this platform to fame. Finally Disney + will offer the catalog of all his classic films, such as the Star Wars and Marvel sagas, as well as his most recent productions, such as The Lion King or Aladdin , in addition to original series.

With this attractive tasting catalog, Disney faces its rival and heats the contest that began last year, when they announced that they would withdraw all their content from Netflix.
