it gets frustrating when you pay same price but get less than the americans
Not to mention we pay more for less content in Europe...

It might be a compensation because of apple pay delay...

I live in the Netherlands and I cancelled the subscription today. Missing app, bad website and most of the content I’ve already seen.
Not worth the price for me. Maybe in the future.

Amazon prime in Italy is almost the same as in Germany.Yeah but funnily enough, not even all Amazon Prime tv shows are available in Europe.
Prime in Europe (maybe besides UK/Germany) is trash.

Oh, and please clarify, who is "us"?

The only thing I am interested in is the Mandalorian and Jeff Goldblums show, which I will watch via ‘other’ means. So by the time Disney+ launches in the UK it will offer zero content that I don’t already own or am interested in until their new shows launch late 2020/21. Even then I’m not sure if it’s worth paying for a handful of shows. They should offer it for a year until they fill out their offerings.
I imagine that it may due to some existing deals with local distributers for some shows that Disney hasn't got the streaming rights back (yet). Disney could pull its shows and movies off Hulu because it owns Hulu. If this was another company Disney might have to wait until the contract ends.

FTFY
Well, when Netflix wanted to setup in France they negotiated for years with the authorities because there are very tight laws protecting the French cinema.
Firstly, they wanted them to produce a certain percentage of French language content (from memory 25%!) Then, they weren't allowed to stream any new films that were less than three years old..and so on.
Eventually, Netflix said, 'We've had enough of this' and based their streaming operation in the Netherlands to get around the regulation, using Amazon's servers that are based there.
I guess the regulations are more relaxed there, they are probably using Amazon as well.. Something in there leading to the probably answer.
And outside the UK, they are the country that speaks by far the best English in Europe so maybe that helped? I mean, nearly everyone there speaks English like a native but often with better grammar.
Other than a few farmers down in the south west, I think Ireland may speak “by far the best English in Europe”. You know, given how it’s the native language and all
Nope.Other than a few farmers down in the south west, I think Ireland may speak “by far the best English in Europe”. You know, given how it’s the native language and all
English is the native language even in Scotland, but they don't speak the best English in Europe.
Alone the international content on Netflix is better than every single show and movie on Disney+. How many original Japanese shows are on Disney+? German? English? That's right...ZERO. A show like DARK is better than anything Disney has ever made in the last 25 years.
