Is Disney+ Going to Beat Netflix?

By: Emily Silva

Disney Plus came out November 12th. Many teenagers have been on this app streaming all of their old favorite TV shows and movies from Disney. It definitely is now the favorite streaming app as of right now, many people have been on it now instead of Netflix. But, the day after Disney Plus came out, Netflix signed a contract with Nickelodeon. Netflix is now going to have all Nickelodeon shows we love and missed watching. Netflix stepped up, it’s game when they found out Disney Plus was coming out. But Disney Plus is still cheaper than Netflix, Disney Plus is $7 a month, while Netflix is starting at $9 to $16 a month. But once Netflix comes out with the old Nickelodeon shows will Netflix be used more or will Disney Plus remain number one?

Disney plus allows there to be seven profiles while Netflix only allows five, we all know people share accounts with friends and some other family members. With Disney Plus you could have a family of four on there and still be able to add three other profiles on there to share with friends or family, with Netflix you could only have one more if you’re with a family of four. Disney Plus is cheaper, allows more profiles, and they’ve also got other movies on there other than Disney, while Netflix costs more, only lets you have five profiles, and has the same movies and shows on there.

Netflix is a great site to have to watch movies and TV shows, but we also know that they do have some old stuff on there, they have the same things on there that people do get tired of watching because it’s the same things. I think if they were to add some new movies and TV shows it’ll be better. Also, I’ve noticed they’ll get some old movies and shows back on there again that they’ve already had before, they should be adding new movies and shows not adding back the old ones that they’ve had one there before. I think if they’re able to get all the Nickelodeon shows on there then it really would blow up again and have more people on there again to watch.

Once Netflix gets Nickelodeon on there it would most likely bolt back up there again, just like when they put Victorious on there, many people jumped on there so they could just watch that. If they were to put back all the others like, ICarly, Drake and Josh, Zoey 101, etc., there might be a bigger competition between the two. Netflix and Disney Plus are going to be the most popular streaming apps and mostly have a ‘battle’ with each other.
