PARA, DIS+, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video -- May 11, 2023

Locator: 44623SW.

DIS is making BUD look great. LOL. 

IIRC: DIS+ lost 600,000 subscribers in the US this last quarter. DIS+ lost four million subscribers in one quarter --  tries to hide the bleeding by saying almost all of that was in India. But 600K in the US is not trivial.


Most interesting: analysts and "Wall Street" are doing what they can to sugar coat this story. Isn't working.

PARA? It's only getting worse. This is a Warren Buffett BRK pick:

For me: Amazon Prime Video ("free"); Pluto TV (free). Very, very rarely any more, Hulu, for sports. 

Tonight: exclusive, king and queen of country -- Amazon Prime Video -- ACM Awards. Are you kidding me! Award ceremony just down the street from where we live: Frisco, TX. Link here.

Op-ed over at CNBC: streaming wars are over. Link here. No, they're not. I guess it depends on the definition of "streaming wars." CNBC's thesis: the industry has to quit concentrating on churning; they need a new revenue stream. Best candidate: gaming. Will Amazon Prime or Meta beat them at this, too?
