Did Disney Just Scuttle Any Future Streaming Pay-Per-Views for Disney+?
Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) CEO Bob Chapek said from the beginning that selling Mulan to existing Disney+ subscribers was an experiment rather than the new norm. Now the media giant has effectively made sure of it. That's because Mulan is now being offered by third-party streaming platforms like FandangoNow and Vudu, leaving some recent Disney+ enrollees wondering if it was worth the $30 they paid for the flick in addition to the recurring monthly cost of a subscription required to make the purchase.
To this end, if Walt Disney ever wanted to promote Disney+ by adding another pay-per-view flick to its lineup, that pitch just became much tougher to make. Future films may or may not be exclusive for very long given the handling of Mulan.
