Good luck finding anything. It’s not integrated until the search is integrated.

It’s weird that Disney felt compelled to pull in Hulu’s green / teal brand colors. Disney+ has more users and Disney has the more valuable brand by a mile.

jack,

It’s not like the new colors are hurting either, so why not do it

That’s the funny thing about UI/UX - sometimes changing non-functional colors can hurt things.

ShepherdPie,

Much like HBO getting rolled into a tiny section of a greater app full of garbage even though it was the most successful thing previously.

acetanilide,

Idk how I feel about this whole thing. We had the bundle for a while and then they added another standalone Hulu subscription on top. And tried to convince us that’s what we wanted/asked for.

I don’t even want to pay for one subscription, let alone twice for the same one.

bandwidthcrisis,

Last year I found that there was a bundle. But I had to sign up for it via Hulu. Now I still get billed for both. At one point I thought that I was over paying, but I found that the Hulu bundle reduces my Disney sub price to add up to the bundle price.

I think. All I know is that it seems more complicated than it should be.

bandwidthcrisis,

Oh, and by cancelling my Peacock subscription, I was able to sign up for it free (ad-supported), with my Instacart account.

What a world.

Corkyskog,

I wonder what deals these companies have. Like can anyone buy 1,000 subs at a reduced price and hook up their customers? This combining services with subscription thing is funny… but it would be real funny if your weed dealer offered you a free account as long as you bought weed from him every month. Stop buying weed and suddenly your Netflix is cutoff.

The Hulu app runs so much faster on my appleTV than the Disney app, so while the idea of having them bunched together isn’t a terrible one from a user’s perspective, I’ll still just jump to Hulu when I want to watch that content because everything is snappier.

Hulu’s UI is so much better. You can tell that it’s something that a team has iterated on for a lot longer.

prettybunnys,

As long as we can all agree the MAX app is hot garbage for AppleTV.

I can hear the background menu scrolling as I scrub the video…

Fucking always with that damn menu audio.

Paramount+’s app is also pretty trashy.

Paramount Plus has the worst streaming app I’ve seen honestly. Even dropout.tv is better.

Aatube,

(They changed the background color and removed the blue from the arc)

aeronmelon,

New logo looks like a tie-in to a specific show, like the Stranger Things version of the Netflix logo. I like the old one better.

Of course, the lightsaber logo remains the best variant.

footox,

Is the combo cheaper than both separately? Too lazy to check…

simplejack,
@simplejack@lemmy.world avatar

As far as I can tell, the pricing is still the same.

Manalith,

Not sure what standard price of each is but the combo is like $11 with ads and $21 without.

ViscloReader,

Ads🥲

Manalith,

I use a combination of NextDNS and PiHole to block them out, at least on my TV box. Haven’t verified on my phone. So it’s effectively the ad free tier, but sometimes takes some readjusting
