Maybe, maybe not.

But what is 100% certain is that Disney knows how to make content that
people want to watch a LOT of , and Disney+ is going to be the only
place to get that content. Customers are going to go where the content
they want to watch is. That's not going to be Netflix/Amazon/Hulu,
unless their forays into original content do a major reversal.

From a global perspective, Netflix are doing better (on the face of it)
than any other provider because they are everywhere, and have no/very
little geographic restrictions.

I, for example, am not interested in Disney+ because they are not
available in Africa.

I already dropped Prime Video because they were not really in Africa. If
Disney+ go the same route, they'll end up the same way.

Speaking for Asia-Pac and South America too :-).
