What’s new (and what’s being removed) on Disney+ and Hulu in August 2024?
From documentary series to blockbusters to dark comedies, August is a month packed with new content on Disney+ and Hulu.
Will Disney+ raise prices again in the near future?
It doesn’t take a force to tell you that prices are likely to rise again next fall.
Unfortunately, it looks like Disney is trying to make price hikes for its streaming services an annual tradition: the company announced price increases a year ago and in August 2023 said they would increase prices starting in October 2023, and we’re seeing the same pattern this year. Last year, only the ad-free tier was affected, but since Disney seems to want to phase out Hulu at some point, who knows what the future holds for its streaming services.
