Disney+ has updated its subscriber agreement to allow advertising before and after movies and shows across every subscription tier. The change quietly ends completely ad-free streaming on the platform, even for those paying top dollar.

That includes the Premium plan, which costs $18.99 a month and was originally sold on the promise of an uninterrupted viewing experience.

Subscribers now face an on-screen prompt when logging in, requiring them to actively accept the updated terms before they can keep watching.

    Lmao. Like really. I could never have ever paid for the Disney channel, that itself is too close to an ad to begin with.

    And now they are going to fuck with their base, the people who love their brand. They probably wont even blink.

    And no I am not talking about the casuals, I an talking the top teir plan who worship the mouse.

    Fuck Disney, always been shit, nothing was worth paying them money.

        Nah. I am finally at a place that even that is too much effort. Stopping consuming and going out and doing is working better for me. They don’t want to offer whatever they have expect to pay too much and get ads, I would rather it not live in world and just be done with it.

        Its like we dont like XYZ so we borrow a copy and tell someone how we liked and, and it perpetuates the desire for XYZ. I figure I no longer want to be a link in that chain.

        I have so many other ways to entertain myself it just isnt worth it anymore.
