A new report suggests more than 60% of people who dropped a streaming service did so after they watched the show or movie that got them to sign up.

Disney takes on Netflix, as HBO Max, Peacock, Apple TV+ and Quibi prepare to enter the streaming fray. Not all will be able to thrive in the increasingly crowded market, analysts warn.The data suggests it’s becoming harder for media and entertainment companies to retain subscribers as competition increases, said Kevin Westcott, Deloitte’s U.S. Tech, Media and Telecom leader, in an interview.

yeah cuz they suck

Yes. That’s how it works.

It’s no different than watching a particular cable channel because your favorite show has a new season, then switch to another show on a different network. I’m not watch all the dumb shit I don’t like while waiting for news shows I do like ... I find another channel.

Streaming services are not good enough. There should be one platform offering every film and TV show ever made, instead of all these limited offerings. I am also canceling my subscriptions all the time, as i don’t want to pay for a limited service.

Oh and serialized releases are tiresome and so 20th Century. Drop the whole thing Disney

'Churn' = Changing the channel.

A button at a time I say! ☝🏻🙎🏻‍♀️📱

HBO in particular suffers from a slow flow of new content. Netflix has set a blistering pace.

A “phenomenon” Lmao! They should just say people are canceling their subscriptions after watching the only show they were interested in. If platforms want to keep clients paying they need to keep producing shows they want to see.

If I canceled Disney + my children would smother me in my sleep.

Not too fast..

I don’t but the movie depicted here should be cancelled very quickly.

All of the shows and movies suck!

Is she off twilight or just need blood?

I got a free year of AppleTV with my new iPhone, watched the Tom Hanks movie and a couple of episodes of that Jennifer Anniston/Steve Carell show and cancelled the service. Just a waste of time.

What is with Hollywood pairing black men with white women all the time?!

Another interracial couple forced down our throat.
