[QUOTE="bloodtide, post: 9032911, member: 6684958"] I don't think they will last. Disney has the Legacy thing going for them and most parents just automatically get it for their kids. Other then that.... Well, other then a couple weeks of summer, most viewers want new content all the time: When ever they want to watch. And they want the content to be of at least 'average' quality. And the whole drag..............it out for weeks and weeks, does not work much anymore. A lot of people hate to wait a week or more between episodes. A lot more people would prefer to watch it once it came "out": so they could watch two episodes a night, four a night or even 'binge watch" them all. But there is no point in paying for a subscription for three mouths when you won't be watching the "live" show each week. And then you finish the new show in a week....and, well, there is nothing else new on the channel that you want to watch. Oh sure, show X will come out in like six months, and then after it comes out for several weeks....a couple weeks after that you can finally watch it. But why waste the money on the subscription for months or even a year? Get a new streaming channel and you can watch all their "recent" shows in less then a month. So why even have a subscription. And sure some legacy stuff might be nice to have...but paying a subscription fee for old stuff is a bit much and adds up. Plus there are plenty of free services that play older shows. [/QUOTE]
