Walt Disney Co said on Aug 10 it is raising prices for streaming subscribers in the US who want to watch Disney+ without ads, as more viewers switch to what CEO Bob Chapek described as the “best value in streaming”.

The price increases are tied to a new tiered service Disney will launch in December for US subscribers. The basic Disney+ service today costs US$7.99 (RM35) per month. Starting in December, that basic service will run ads, so a subscriber who wants no ads will have to upgrade to a premium service that starts at US$10.99 (RM49) per month, a 37.5% rise over current prices. An annual plan will cost US$109.99 (RM489).
