It’s a sad reality that streaming services are deleting original films from platforms - here’s everything that’s disappeared from Disney+

It’s too long to abbreviate here. It’s quite surprising what they’ve deleted.

    It’s not licensed material. Disney is deleting their own original content so they don’t have to pay residuals to the actors and crew who worked on them.

      Disney owns the license to sell or distribute and I’d bet money that 80% of the listed titles of recent culls will be on Netflix or Peacock or Hulu or Apple or Youtube within 2 years. They’ll get some shows in exchange that’ll generate more revenue from new subscriptions than losses from royalties and then they’ll magically pop up somewhere else. It is the norm nowadays

              Disney is deleting their own original content so they don’t have to pay residuals to the actors and crew who worked on them.

              We’re talking about that, not whatever ‘Disney+’ branded is, and Disney kicks the rights to duds to other services as I’ve thoroughly explained and pointed out, so please, go back to reddit with your downvoting of factual stuff

              tl;dr: dude said Disney deletes their own content in order to not pay residuals, I point out that Disney is bundling that stuff and trading it off. End of discussion. The topic has run its course
