LOS ANGELES: No, it wasn't Amazon's fault that Disney+ struggled following its launch last week: Disney direct-to-consumer chairman Kevin Mayer told the audience of Recode's Code Media conference in Los Angeles on Nov 19 that there really wasn't anyone to blame but Disney's own technology.

"It had we to do with the way we architected the app," Mayer said. "It was not Amazon."
