The Disney price is only a introductory price. Bob Iger, Disney's boss, has made that clear to city analysts. He set the streamer at a low price to build up a subscriber base as quickly as possible. They're hoping for several million customers at launch. Long term, that price is not sustainable, especially as they lose revenue from licencing all their content out to third party broadcasters around the world, including Netflix and the steamer canabolises Disney's linear services especially ESPN.

And talking of Disney, they're removing content from Australia too:
