Too Many Video Streaming Choices May Drive Users Back To Piracy

I would hope so, but Disney is already known for repeatedly pulling out old works from the market and re-releasing them later on, since AFAIK the VCR era, so I wouldn't bet on them refraining from shenanigans on their streaming service.

The CEO of Disney has said that the "Disney Vault" concept is dead. That being said, they still have to wait for licensing deals to expire to have everything on Disney+.

I guess I need to check carefully what they're going to offer before I sign up.

Also, I may have to wait until my smart TV supports it. We never had these kind of problems when we just had cable. (Or did we?)

Thanks. Though with this big a list, a list of what's missing might be more useful.

The Muppet Show seems to be missing, though there's lots of other muppet stuff. Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal are also missing, perhaps because Netflix made a new Dark Crystal show.
