Rumours of Apple buying Disney.

Why'd you even use an Apple app to play music, just use an Android dedicated media player for it.

Apple loves to restrict everything they can. If they could sell its customers a brick for $1000, you bet your ass they would.

Apple Music subscribers.

Fair enough.

I personally prefer the Simple Radio app for my favorite radio station, YouTube Music (Vanced), and Spotify.

Lossless music from Apple is not bad, their selection is decent and their price is good. Not much to not like about Apple music other than no lossless on Sonos ( actually it is deal breaker for me, but you were talking about android phone )

I think actually Apple is going to reduce the price of Disney+ enough for world domination and until that happens it will stay low to kill the competitors.

World domination. lol

All these streaming services are beginning to feel worse than Cable TV. Just too friggin' many!

Mickey Mouse: Oh boy! Anton Lavey he was such millenial-ified baby boomer. Haha! G-Man: Prepare for unforseen consequences.

and then they will secretly implement updates that will brainwash us and make us buy expensive accessoires to get access to Appleisney+

Anyone with a Apple ID that has not been associated with Disney+ will probably get some offer and if they buy anything new then it is for sure

Apple has been extremely weak(for Apple) when it comes to TV. Not enough resolve perhaps. Buying Disney spell doom for the people who has been trying at Apple. But the pressure is then on Tim Cook.

Well at least speaking of what if scenario I’m gonna visit Disneyland Paris myself in Europe then maybe at least official Gadget Hackwrench official female cosplayer would be able to fix my own iPhone XS in case of if it might be malfunctioning.

Instead of Genius Bar you now can have Goofy bar. How cool is that?

And everyone will have Micky mouse ears in an Apple Store

Instead of a Apple sticker you get a Mickey Mouse sticker

How about Mickey Mouse reporting how people love the Mickey Watch and how it saved their lives

I can’t wait to queue up for the mPhone, buy the next mPad and Mac already has the letter M so let's go buy one now

And now we know why Apple M chip has the letter M it’s either Mickey Mouse or Magic Kingdom

anti monopoly laws are real.

Imagine Apple designing Star Wars ships...

Proprietary docking zones, Warp speed only available with a Disney+ subscription, ugly rounded ship designs, Apple Care required for all ship pilots...
Yuck!

Well, Disney can't get any worse than they already are.

imagine all your movies locked behind paywalls on a apple box you have to buy and you have to upgrade it every year. your limited to how many movies you can watch a month and you have to pay outrageous fees. that's what it will be like!

Hmmm actually this sounds like an idea Palatine would come up with to fund more Death Stars and increase his control on the Galaxy.

I would imagine that Gemini won't be allowed to generate Disney characters and Siri would be dishing out that instead.

From the way you talk maybe you have no idea what is Apple TV. I would expect Apple TV to be more or less the same except now you get the Disney library on it.

The amount of woke is going to be more like Apple TV than Disney ( less extreme )

Very doubtful Apple would spend big money on anything other than GAI.

Apple TV+ is available on non Apple devices such as the Fire Stick, if anything, I'd expect Apple to shutdown Apple TV+ and just have Disney produce all of their content through Disney+.

The most 'Apple like' thing I'd expect is for them to completely shut down physical media and force you to subscribe to Disney+ with maybe a 'to own'/rent DD option through Apple, although Disney has already started to do that, in Australia/NZ at least.

On a side note, Apple supports their devices better than allot of Android vendors, at least with official support.

Eh, sounds like the "purchase" (rental) many are already used to.

 

[Dark_Ansem]

well this was all BS yes?

 

[hippy dave]

Maybe it went like the Microsoft/Nintendo meeting

Apple: we would like to buy you
Disney:
