After the Netfix bugbear, apparently too Disney + could raise prices of subscriptions. Thanks to the amount of time we spend at home due to the pandemic quality of this time that we try to increase more and more, the quality and quantity of streaming content increases. Well, thanks (or because of?) Of these two factors, even the second platform in the world could increase prices. To confirm it is the CEO himself after sharing the results of the first part of 2022.
Diensy + may increase subscription prices with the new season. The reason is the greater quantity and quality of the contents
The streaming division of the giant, or Disney +, is optimistic that by 2023 will have a greater amount of exclusive content. This will ultimately affect the cost of the Disney + membership. According to the data in our possession, the increase in prices could start to October in the company's fiscal calendar. Bob Chapek, The company's CEO, said during a conference call to discuss the latest financial results:
"So [we will have] the flexibility, should we have to choose, to then examine the price increases on our service"

In his comments, Chapek did not clarify whether he referred toDisney's fiscal year or standard calendar year. The company did not immediately respond to messages seeking clarification. In any case, if Chapek meant the calendar year 2023, the price increases they would not enter the picture until after December.
Disney + 's budget approaches that of Netflix. Promising more than 100 new titles each year on the platform and pledging to spend by 14 to 16 billion dollars per year for streaming content through its services within the next three years, the two giants are likely to clash in an obvious way. In the end, Chapek said that it's not just about quantity, but also about the quality of the content.
