They give a date to end shared accounts on Disney+

For a couple of years now, streaming companies have begun to apply a new measure to attract more customers to their platforms, and that is precisely the trend that Netflix started by not allowing people to share their password outside the owner's main residence. This made people angry, but strangely enough, it has worked to keep them paying for the membership which is why MAX and Disney+ They were not going to sit idly by and take their slice of the pie.

This is how in a recent interview, the company's CEOBob Iger, has mentioned that there is no room for those who have shared their account with more people, and that causes them to lose potential clients for that same reason. That leads us to the revelation that next June they will begin the plan to block addresses not linked to the main profile, so that everyone pays for their subscription, which can only be shared with members of the same family.

This measure has been mentioned for months, but it has always been delayed for one reason or another, and it is worth mentioning that not everyone will be affected by this decision, but eventually it is contemplated to cover everyone, specifically in September, so it won't be a big delay. Also, as happens with Netflixthe user who owns the account can use the service outside his home with the method of a special password that is sent via email, which has limitations so as not to carry out a trick that violates the rules.

It will be interesting to see what the consequences of this application will be, if it will work and more members will come to the platform, or if it will be the opposite and many will stop paying for having followed in the footsteps of the red company, which continues to be maintained. in the favorites of consumers. Furthermore, the detail with Disney Plusis that the sum of new content is less than Netflixsince the latter continues adding films from other companies that provide the license for a fee.

Editor's note: It is a quite unfair situation, but we will see if at least in our region they delay this rule or if we will be the first because we are on the same continent as the United States.
