Every Disney Fanatic Is Probably Conflicted About Disney's New Streaming Service

I am having conflicted feelings about it.

Every Disney Fanatic Is Probably Conflicted About Disney's New Streaming Service
Instagram

I know this is old news by now, but I had to speak on it. Disney recently released that they will be leaving Netflix in 2019 and creating their own streaming service which will possibly launch in 2019. If you know me, then you know I looooooove me some Disney movies.

But upon hearing this news, I wasn’t has thrilled as you might imagine. Below I’ll list some of my personal pros and cons to Disney have its own streaming service, and then you can decide for yourself if you think it’s a good move for the company or not.

Pros: All. Disney. Movies. And. Shows. In. One. Place.

That’s huge. Because it’s not just the classic Disney movies like ‘The Lion King’ or ‘Aladdin’ or ‘Cinderella’ but it’s also the Marvel movies, Star Wars movies, original shows and movies from Disney Channel (I actually don’t know if all of that is confirmed, but I would assume so since it’s Disney owned).

That’s so much content, it’s crazy and it makes me excited just thinking about it. I think 90s babies and even 2000s babies (but I feel like 90s more) grew up with Disney and so this is kind of a big deal to us. Or at least to me.

Cons: Another streaming service? Really?

I just….I feel like a big chunk of the demographic they’re targeting is 18-25 year olds, but all of us are broke college students. Who has the money to spend on another streaming service?

I would sign up for this so fast if I didn’t have to pay for it. But obviously they need to charge in order to make a profit, I get that. I’m not a business major and I don’t know how any of this works, but so many people have Netflix, I feel like a better option would’ve been to put all of their shows and movies on there. Or even have Netflix charge $2-$3 extra exclusively for Disney content. I don’t know, those are just my thoughts. But I am definitely less likely to subscribe to another streaming service. I just wish all of the major streaming services could come combine for a low cheap college friendly price.

So those are just my thoughts, what are yours? Yay or nay to Disney’s streaming service?

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human Creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
