I have no idea. My guess would be yes. They used to offer new movies the moment they hit home video, if I remember correctly.
There’s just too many services now. There needs to be some umbrella services. Contract with Prime Video, Netflix and Hulu and include your shit in a package at a reduced price. Otherwise, I foresee a lot of profit loss in the future.
Most households can only afford one streaming service a year, two at best. And that’s with cutting tv completely out. Everyone has a huge phone and internet bill, so paying $15 for a streaming service and then another $15 for a secondary service starts getting “problematic.” And since a vast majority of households cater to their kids, take a wild guess which streaming service might be the new staple platform.
It basically boils down to this, at present—if you have kids, you get Disney+ and if you don’t you get Netflix or Prime Video. In some cases, I’m sure Disney+ has just been tacked on as an added household expense. The way I see it, Hulu may not exist in the same capacity in a few years. Crunchy Roll, HBO, Apple TV+, Facebook Watch and all the other countless smaller services will have a tough time vying for the attention of consoomers.
Of all those listed, Crunchy Roll is about the only one that has a niche that can’t be easily scratched. It stands a much better chance of surviving.
