> I’ve heard more excitement about Disney+ from family/friends than any other tech launch I can remember. Short of maybe the original iPhone, and maybe the Nintendo Switch. Techies and non-techies alike are counting down the days until it launches.

I am one of those people. I can’t wait to sign up for Disney streaming and ditch Netflix.

For me, Netflix is just full of filler with annoying ads touting a garbage Netflix series (I Land anybody)

At least with Disney, I know I will be getting a strong catalog (classic cartoons, Star Wars, Marvel)

Man the marketing bots are out in force today. Either HN really loves Disney -- skeptical of that -- or Disney is pushing hard. And they have the money to do so.
You think a site full of nerds is somehow not fans of animation, Star Wars, and Marvel movies? I'd contend that not one 'marketing bot' is involved at all. Disney's a monstrous company that's twisted Copyright to its own ends... but Marvel movies alone will drag me in.
