For those prioritizing an uninterrupted experience, the premium Disney+ and Hulu bundle—featuring no-ads access to both services—remains steady at $19.99 per month...

Gotta say, this is shocking. This price has remained steady for a while now.

Hulu+ Live TV has now zipped past my Dish Flexpack with add-ons. Remember when everybody was running around yelling how much money they saved by changing to streaming? Hah!

It is less expensive, I have commercial free Paramount+ with Showtime, Disney/Hulu, HBO, Peacock ( the only one with commercials) and Netflix, with those, the majority of new scripted programming from paid Live TV, along with all the exclusive streaming scripted content.

Paid Live TV is not worth it at all, less and less new programming every year, along with that ever increasing price.

Ahh, so they increase the prices right before the holiday season when more people will be streaming holiday movies and shows.

Glad I cancelled both Disney plus and Hulu because of Jimmy Kimmel. I wasn't watching either service that much anyway. Won't be resubscribing any time soon. Maybe once they offer yearly discounted deals during the holidays and end of year sales.

Does your flex pack include Disney+ and Hulu's on-demand content? If not, it isn't really and apples-to-apples comparison, but I get your point. The legacy, shrinking business hasn't increased their prices as fast as the new, growing version of the "same thing." Of course, Dish has probably been making money the whole time while Hulu+Live was breaking even at best -- not unlike Dish losing money at first when they were trying to make inroads against cable.

It comes with Disney + and HBO with commercials.
