40 percent of US Disney Plus subscribers picked the bundle with ESPN Plus and Hulu

TL;DR

In its earnings report on Tuesday, Disney also revealed that it added 12.1 million Disney Plus subscribers globally, making for 164 million in total, as well as 14.6 million subscribers across all its services.Christine McCarthy, the chief financial officer at Disney, said during an earnings call that 40 percent of Disney Plus subscribers have the bundle with Hulu and ESPN Plus, which its pricing makes it increasingly hard to pass up.Even with these price increases, Disney’s average monthly revenue per paid subscriber for Disney Plus in the US and Hulu without live TV actually decreased from $6.81 to $6.10 and $12.75 to $12.23, respectively.This is likely because more people bought into the bundle, as it reduces how much they’re paying for each individual subscription.On December 8th, Disney Plus is introducing its new, cheaper ad-supported tier for $7.99 per month that CEO Bob Chapek says the company has “secured more than 100 advertisers” for so far."
