how much content does Disney produce? It seems relatively small compared to what Netflix produces but I might be wrong.

Beyond Disney proper, there's: Disney Theatrical Group, Walt Disney Television, Radio Disney, ESPN, FX Networks, National Geographic Partners, The Muppets Studio, Pixar, Marvel Studios, 20th Century Fox, Fox 2000 Pictures, Fox Searchlight Pictures, Blue Sky Studios, Lucasfilm, ABC, ABC News, Freeform, Touchstone Pictures, and a 33% stake in Hulu... They make a lot of stuff, though the Fox properties are part of a recent acquisition from Murdoch

Very few of those have a hit rate close to Disney proper.

Netflix has nothing like ESPN, or Pixar, or Marvel, or Star Wars. ESPN alone has a total U.S. subscriber base of about 86 million, to Netflix's 60.62 million

How much of ESPN's subscriber base is packaged cable? Having Netflix is an active decision, but I recall almost always having ESPN in the early 2000s due to cable packaging.

ESPN+, their unbundled streaming service has 3.5 million subscribers as of November. So well over 90% of their subscriber base is cable. But cable is still a beast to be reckoned with, especially in the arena of live events.
