Streaming Services Combine: Now Offer Ad-Free Access to Hulu as Part of Disney+ Subscription
(Bustin' Bundles: Stream A Triple Threat with Disney+, ESPN+, and Hulu!)
Streaming all the things just got more tantalizing! With a well-timed twist, Disney has launched a tantalizing trio of streaming services - Disney+, ESPN+, and an ad-free Hulu - now available at a captivating price!
First announced at Disney's Investor Day event in December, this alluring bundle allows you to dive into the enchanting world of Disney+ for $19 per month, decked out with an ad-free version of sibling service Hulu, plus ESPN+. The normal cost for this premium package is $13 a month when paired with ad-supported Hulu, so essentially, you'll be luxuriating in the additional perks of ad-free Hulu at no extra charge!
Although these package deals had a sneaky sneak peek through Hulu, the company is now giving fresh options to subscribers. Those eager to start this cinematic adventure will find themselves completing the sign-up process through Hulu if they fancy adding a smorgasbord of extra goodies, like Hulu with Live TV. Of course, you can still enjoy the original base bundle as well!
But, wait! Get ready for change in the pricing realm. Beginning next month, the Disney+ bundle with ad-supported Hulu will tack on an extra dollar to $14 per month. Meanwhile, Disney+ alone will be taking a step up from $7 to $8, starting March 26. While there's no official grapevine chatter about the ad-free bundle's upcoming price, a company representative spilled the beans this week that they're keeping mum on the matter.
Even with the price flip, Disney's bundle still offers a spectacular deal, rivalring the quality Netflix brings to the table with its standard plan. And then, there's the star attraction: the Mandalorian! They say it's out of this world, so get ready to tune in!
