It doesn't look as though Disney+ will carry that disadvantage (at least from what we know so far) and so hopefully we will get that from launch.

If we end up with Amazon, Apple and Disney +, I shall be a very happy bunny!

It's more likely to be the pricing model - at the moment, Amazon get the money directly - if they re-sell (through any model), the re-seller will have a slice, and they can't put the price up, as why would anyone pay more for a service you can get cheaper directly.
