Disney Plus has reportedly added over 9 million subscribers in the US in the last several months with many of them opting for its bundle that includes Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN Plus, according to their new earnings report issued on Tuesday.
Christine McCarthy, the chief financial officer at Disney, said during an earnings call that 40% of Disney Plus subscribers have the bundle with Hulu and ESPN Plus, which provides access to all services for $14.99 per month for the ad-supported versions of Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN Plus or $19.99 per month for Disney Plus and Hulu without ads (and ESPN Plus with ads).
These are good numbers considering the recent price hikes as Disney Plus went from $7.99 to $10.99 and ad-free Hulu bumped from $12.99 to $14.99 (or $6.99 to $7.99 for the ad-supported version).
Disney’s average monthly revenue per paid subscriber for Disney Plus in the US and Hulu without live TV actually decreased from $6.81 to $6.10 and $12.75 to $12.23, despite the aforementioned price hikes.
