An epic battle is brewing in the entertainment industry. In the coming months, most of the biggest media conglomerates will launch their own streaming services in a high-stakes effort to remain relevant by selling movies, TV programming and short-form videos directly to viewers.
Not every service will be able to thrive in this crowded market, and several companies have clear advantages. But it’s far too early to declare winners and losers, said Tom K. Ara, a Los Angeles-based entertainment industry attorney at the law firm DLA Piper.If any company can claim “favorite” status in the streaming race, it’s probably Disney, which launches its subscription service, Disney+, on Nov. 12.
“Think about the range of subscribers they’ll be able to attract, from children to adults, from ‘Star Wars’ fans to Homer Simpson fans to National Geographic fans,” said Ric Kay, head of MUFG’s Media, Telecom & Sports Finance practice. “Netflix has hit a road bump because they’ve reached a saturation point,” said Gene Del Vecchio, an entertainment marketing expert at USC’s Marshall School of Business.
“The quality, curation and marquee aspects of HBO form the foundation of our offering and give us an immediate head-start with consumers,” said Bob Greenblatt, chairman of WarnerMedia Entertainment and Direct-to-Consumer.
Cable television companies will win😡
Disney stream just highlights how terrible their live action movies were and everyone with kids already own the animated catalogue.

Who indeed
Won't be Disney except for people with kids. Older people don't want to see that syrupy sweet crap. I want blood, guts, violence, profanity and plenty of lewdness. 😁
Netflix and Hulu.... everyone’s seen all the Disney movies... twice.
Fuckin' Mickey Mouse.
There can be 4 or 5 major streamers. Much like cbs, abc, nbc and fox.
