Disney+ Bundle with Hulu and ESPN+ or Disney+? The Definitive Guide

[@oldmarine5917]

Wish I had saw this video about 15 hours ago. I signed up for the bundle... but now wish I could have Hulu w/ no ads. Anyways, I appreciate your channel, and you've got a new subscriber. Looking forward to your reports as the Streaming Wars begin.

[@CordCuttingReport]

Thanks very much! If you didn't do an annual subscription, you can probably cancel what you did and start a new Hulu no-ads account and re-sign up for the bundle.

[@ziongarza1345]

Do you know how many people can watch hulu at once?

[@user-tt6be2zx3h]

this all depends on how much ads/commercials you can stand lol... for me when I want my entertainment media online, I avoid ads like a plague.. literally the deal-beaker for me, every time, any deals~

[@Godless-Being]

I know I’m four years late, but I just got the duo of Disney/Hulu (no ads cuz screw ads) and I love it

[@aleksa2529]

can you watch marvel movies on a PC on a monitor

[@jakesverns]

Is it possible to get the disney+ bundle (hulu & epsn+) in australia?

[@jeffartis184]

Just got the bundle Thanks. Explains things.

[@CordCuttingReport]

Cool. Thanks for checking out the video. Appreciate it.

[@eddyvideostar]

Dear Cord: Can one get the USA streaming network with this?

[@HausOfPain]

Does it still make more sense to just get the Disney+ bundle instead of just ESPN+?

[@irvinmorales1409]

I've got the Hulu account with ads. Will getting the Disney bundle get rid of the ads or what?

[@CordCuttingReport]

No. The Disney bundle comes with Hulu with ads, but there is an option to get Hulu with no ads with the bundle. I explain that in the video.

[@GodlessFiend]

I tried to Pandora out for a few weeks I didn’t really like it so I’m just keeping Disney+ as solo

[@Thosewhoknowz]

Wait so I have to pay 12$ for Hulu with no adds and then get the bundle for 13 and then instead of getting chargers 12 for Hulu I’ll get charged 6? So it’ll be 19$ in total ?

[@ThisNamesNowTaken]

How do you access ESPN when the app wasnt one of the preinstalled apps when the TV was purchased and your TV cant download more apps? Do you have no choice but to always go through the TVs internet connection to access it from the website?

[@rogerpakulski5737]

Do you have any review of a TiVo OTA Bolt with 4 tuners?? How does the TiVo compare to the others you reviewed?

[@kristinalomeli4893]

Ok what about the ESPN section you didnt mention everything included

[@22rsx]

Is this out in Canada? I want it just for watch UFC's Fight Nights.

[@ibrapasha]

Can you watch the ultimate fighter on Disney plus / ESPN plus?

[@CordCuttingReport]

Ultimate Fighter is on ESPN+.

[@hubbiemid6209]

I have the hulu no ads and spotify premium for students bundle? Can I still bundle with disney+?

[@CordCuttingReport]

You would have to give up the Spotify bundle, and sign up for the Disney+ bundle to get Disney+, ESPN+ and Hulu no ads. Disney+ won't let you do multiple bundles at the moment.

[@luiislp7]

I didn't know you could get the student bundle with no ads. What's the price ?

[@GenXCrossing]

so i signed up for the bundle, got my one cent email... the thing i am trying to understand is why i was still charged for dp separately? i haven’t gotten any 5.99 credit on hulu or dp so whats the point of the bundle if i am still paying the same hulu (ad free) price and they are charging dp separately? i am so confused

[@CordCuttingReport]

The $5.99 credit should show up on your Disney+ bill if you signed up with the same email as your Hulu no-ads account. The benefit to bundling Hulu no-ads is that you will save $4.98 per month compared to subscribing to Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ separately. I would contact them if you don't see the credit. Here's the help page cited in the video in case that helps: help.disneyplus.com/csp?id=csp_article_content&sys_kb_id=802db6851bc90010b8651f861a4bcbfd

[@GenXCrossing]

Cord Cutting Report do you know if it’ll show in the next billing cycle? and i will read ur link as soon as i able to

[@CordCuttingReport]

@@GenXCrossing I think it should be your next bill. (I'm assuming you had already paid for Huiu.) If not, then I would contact customer service. Hope that helps.

[@GenXCrossing]

Cord Cutting Report yeah my hulu had already been paid for the month

[@cathyrodriguez156]

I know this might be a dumb question but if I already have a disney+ account and want to get the bundle deal do I just subscribe to a Hulu account and automatically be changed the remaining balance of the bundle since I've already been recently charged for my disney+ account?

[@cc423266]

I'm an existing Hulu no ads subscriber. I bundled Disney + and ESPN to my servise last week. After I set up my accounts and loaded the apps to my tv I tried to test a few of the movies on Disney. The movies I tried to play all had a blacked out screen, but the sound was playing the background. (New Vizio M-series tv + 4k Firestick). I goggled the issue and found this a common occurrence with the disney app. I contacted Disney support and was informed that their app is not compatible with Vizo. I canceled my account and waiting for my refund from Disney.

[@CordCuttingReport]

Sorry to hear about your streaming problems, but thanks for sharing this. Honestly, I am not familiar with the Vizio ecosystem. But this is some good info for others considering the Disney+ bundle!

[@jimmyrichardson7738]

So if i do the bundle how do i get the ESPN + on my LG smart tv? It is a newer version 2018 model? Thanks

[@CordCuttingReport]

If you can add apps to your TV, just add the ESPN app and log into ESPN+ from there. All your ESPN+ programming is within the ESPN app.

[@jimmyrichardson7738]

@@CordCuttingReport Thanks for responding! I wish it was that easy... ESPN doesnt show nor does it come up when i search for it in the "LG APP store"... Thanks again and if yo can figure this one let me know i will be watching..

[@CordCuttingReport]

@@jimmyrichardson7738 That's too bad the app store doesn't have it. You can always just get a pretty inexpensive Roku (maybe the Streaming Stick+ if you have a 4K TV), and get all the apps that way. If I figure out something else, I'll definitely let you know!

[@MrPhotastic]

@@jimmyrichardson7738 I have a LG as well and was unable to get the ESPN app on my tv. So I went to the web browser on my tv and log in from the ESPN website. It's a bit troublesome logging in, but the picture quality is not bad at all.

[@Joetorious1]

Great vid. Wondering if you have anything that addresses the following. I was a Comcast and VZ Fios customer for years. Recently moved and had to go with DTV or Spectrum (the thought of chord cutting always seemed convoluted and just as expensive as the traditional route). Alas, I hate DTV and want to cancel ASAP. Double alas: my ATT internet is only 25 mbps (if I'm lucky). Spectrum internet here is about 100 mbps; another company is supposedly installing fiber in hood in a couple months, which should be up to 1000 mbps. To do it right, what kind of infrastructure (internet speed), equipment (boosters, TVs, other devices and wired vs wireless) and subscriptions do I need? I'm considering buying a new TV or two - are there limiting factors I need to be aware of in terms of specs needed to truly support a high-quality chordless lifestyle? True newbie here. Thanks!

[@CordCuttingReport]

Keep in mind that Netflix only requires 5Mbps for streaming in HD. If you're streaming in 4K, most streaming services recommend 25Mbps. So despite what you may hear, you don't need a ton of speed to get a decent experience. For years, I was rolling with 25 to 50Mbps and paying about $40 per month. I would definitely buy your own cable modem and router instead of renting one. My cord cutting guide covers the rest: cordcuttingreport.com/cord-cutting-guide/ Hope that helps.

[@Joetorious1]

@@CordCuttingReport You're an instant legend in my household. Thank you! Helpful AF.

[@CordCuttingReport]

@@Joetorious1 Haha... Thanks Joe. Good luck and thanks for checking out the video and site.

[@milosalazar9728]

Doesn espn plus have live UFC main events like tomorrow jon jones ? Pls lemme know before i sign up?

[@JustinColeYT1]

ESPN+ has the Prelims at the base price of $4.99 or with the Disney+ bundle for $12.99. The PPV cost an extra $60.

[@amaurymartinez3445]

Can’t access ESPN

[@CordCuttingReport]

That's correct. Like I said in the video, ESPN+ doesn't give you access to programming on ESPN, ESPN2, or any of ESPN's family of networks that you see on cable TV or satellite.

[@wrinkledm]

@@CordCuttingReport So what is the point of getting the ESPN+ in the bundle if you can't access the channels. It seems kinda like a gimmick!

[@CordCuttingReport]

​@@wrinkledmESPN has a bunch of networks that focus on exclusive sporting events or programming, including ACC Network, SEC Network, ESPN3 and so on. ESPN+ is just another network with a different focus. The big difference is that ESPN+ is not tied to a cable TV or satellite company to survive. It's full-on streaming. If you want ESPN, here's a guide on some less expensive options. cordcuttingreport.com/2019/08/18/watch-espn-without-cable/

[@JustinColeYT1]

@@CordCuttingReport ESPN+ is just overflow of content that would be on ESPN 3. The cable networks, like ESPN and ESPN 2 require a cable subscription. ESPN by itself on cable is about $7 a month, so if they would add all of the networks on ESPN+, they would be LOSING money.

[@ritaf.h.2851]

Cord Cutting Report does it work on console

[@Little_Bitz]

Tbh, unfortunately no one that I’ve seen so far has shown everything that Disney has to offer right now in their streaming service. I signed up for the free trial to kill the cat and I gotta say it’s just NOT WORTH IT right now. Maybe in a year or two but other than that it’s not worth it right now. The Mandalorian is good but it’s just under 30 mins per episode. Just not cutting right now. Sure there are shows coming in the future but seriously if their goal is to try to get ppl to signup based on their originals everyone should beware that they are essentially all shorts (20 mins etc). Maybe parents wanna get it for their kids and have them watch through all they have to offer in 1-3 months if their kid is watching daily but trust me it gets stale and dry fast. This current “deal” they have is just to get everyone to pay for them to take over shows from other streaming services we already had them on and pocket more money to one day in the next year or two..maybe more put out good lengthy movies and binge worthy shows. Disney literally just taught my kid all about capitalism inadvertently by taking away anything Disney from our cable provider. Pretty damn brazen but hey they have the money so they can take what they want, right?!

[@Master-zp5pn]

You Right Just Like WWE.

[@stormtide88]

Do both Hulu and ESPN+ let you change your email address to match your Disney+ account?

[@CordCuttingReport]

I don't understand what you're asking. But I'll try to answer based on what I think you're asking. Assuming you have Disney+ , and Hulu under different emails and want to bundle, here's what to do: Open your Disney+ account on your computer or phone. Select profile icon and account, then look under Account Details. Under Account Details, you'll see your email. You can select change email and then save it. I hope that answers your question and helps.

[@fa1509]

We need Viacom cbs to do a BET+, Showtime, CBS ALL ACCESS BUNDLE

[@MJamilHoque]

Other then Disney and Pixar, can you inform us about what ABC and FOX has to offer under Disney+?

[@CordCuttingReport]

TV shows from ABC and FOX are actually on Hulu, which you can get as part of the Disney+ bundle. Disney+ has the library of Disney films, Pixar, the Marvel cinematic universe, Star Wars and National Geographic.

[@Rico-ue5ty]

would disney+ have ads in this bundle

[@iisaacm]

No

[@Godless-Being]

Only if you made it that way

[@masterroshi4714]

With this bundle your limited to what your allowed to watch on Hulu as well....but my dad's loving the ESPN+ so I'm keeping the bundle for his sake....oh and I find myself never using Disney+ 😂😂

[@Nepthu]

Informative video. All I want is ESPN+ for UFC PPVs, but I'm told I have to get ESPN before I can get the ESPN+. However, this bundle sounds like I can bypass that requirement and get other channels along with ESPN+ for the UFC PPVs I want. Either way, I'm being forced to get extra junk I don't need, but this sounds like the better option.

[@CordCuttingReport]

You can subscribe just to ESPN+ then get a PPV fight. (Note: No regular ESPN cable channel needed.) The Disney+ bundle is a good deal if you're already into Hulu and/or Disney+ because then you're pretty much paying one cent a month for ESPN+. Hope that helps.

[@Nepthu]

@@CordCuttingReport thanks for the reply. It helps somewhat, but my fire stick doesn't have an app for ESPN Plus, only ESPN. Doesn't that mean I have to buy ESPN first?
