And there are rumours that Hulu might also head up north because it had been purchased by Disney last November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also appears WarnerMedia might consider pulling their Criterion Collection catalog and other films from Netflix for their <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Criterion Channel (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.criterion.com\/channel\" target=\"_blank\">Criterion Channel<\/a> service, so Netflix&#8217;s catalog may be getting quite thin in 2019.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore agreements have been made to bring add-on subscriptions to <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Amazon Prime (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2C5tZQl\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon Prime<\/a> members, primarily to HBO, Showtime or Starz. And the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"DC Universe (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dcuniverse.com\/coming-soon\/\" target=\"_blank\">DC Universe<\/a> streaming service expansion into Canada may also strip Netflix of a few more films and television programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m personally going to stick with Netflix for a while because i&#8217;ve already got most of my Marvel, Pixar and Star Wars films on blu-ray thanks to <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Amazon (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2FgbcEO\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon<\/a> and the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Disney Movie Club (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/disneymovieclub.go.com\/webapp\/wcs\/stores\/servlet\/AcquisitionSplashView?langId=-1&amp;storeId=10001&amp;catalogId=10151\" target=\"_blank\">Disney Movie Club<\/a>. But might consider the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Disney Plus (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/preview.disneyplus.com\/ca\/\" target=\"_blank\">Disney Plus<\/a> streaming service if it offers access to the cartoons featured in the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Walt Disney Treasures (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2LRGBPq\" target=\"_blank\">Walt Disney Treasures<\/a> collection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had managed to purchase all of the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Donald Duck (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2RzBwQZ\" target=\"_blank\">Donald Duck<\/a> cartoons via this collection when they were originally released but had also wanted to purchase the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Goofy (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2RBdfKk\" target=\"_blank\">Goofy<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Pluto (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2VxeMQR\" target=\"_blank\">Pluto<\/a> collections for the few cartoons that were not included in the Chronological Donald Duck collections. <br><br>I had hoped these would be recompiled on blu-ray or would be made available for purchase online soon. But access to the whole Disney cartoon library via a streaming service would be tempting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are already quite a few on <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Youtube (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCS4tpACBbG6OPGdOpQdtMxA\" target=\"_blank\">Youtube<\/a> and I had expected Disney to eventually release their whole catalogue on an official Youtube channel or two, with adverts. And i&#8217;m hoping this will also be an option in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I guess time will tell, although i&#8217;m in no rush and can wait until the dust settles. After all, I only have a few Marvel and Pixar films to buy and they will likely be discounted meanwhile.<br><br>I&#8217;d suggest waiting is the best course of action. We can always use free trial offers as they come along and they could offer deals as the market gets heated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lduhtrp.net\/image-1702705-10432175\" alt=\"Free Shipping on Orders Over $25!\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although this site is primarily dedicated to music, I also like film, which is why i&#8217;d like to discuss what will happen soon to Netflix in 2019.
