Hulu With Live TV gets back to the 4 million-subscriber mark

Hulu With Live TV just increased its lead in the battle to be the biggest live TV streaming service in the United States. The Disney-owned service had 4 million paid subscribers as of October 2, 2021, according to Disney’s earnings report on the company’s fourth quarter of the fiscal year.

That’s up about 300,000 subscribers from the previous quarter, but still down about 100,000 subs from the same point in 2020.

“This has been a very productive year for The Walt Disney Company, as we’ve made great strides in reopening our businesses while taking meaningful and innovative steps in direct-to-consumer (DTC) and at our parks, particularly with our popular new Disney Genie and Magic Key offerings,” Disney CEO Bob Chapek said in the earnings report. “As we celebrate the two-year anniversary of Disney+, we’re extremely pleased with the success of our streaming business, with 179 million total subscriptions across our DTC portfolio at the end of fiscal 2021 and 60% subscriber growth year-over-year for Disney+. We continue to manage our DTC business for the longterm, and are confident that our high-quality entertainment and expansion into additional markets worldwide will enable us to further grow our streaming platforms globally.”

YouTube TV — the only other live service in the same ballpark as Hulu With Live TV — last gave rough numbers of “more than 3 million” in October 2020. It hasn’t updated its subscriber numbers since.

Hulu With Live TV and the Hulu on-demand service also are bringing in more money for Disney, with the former now hitting an average monthly revenue mark of $84.89 per subscriber, up about $13 year-over-year, while the latter is up about 16 cents to $12.75 a month. The live service saw a price increase in December 2020.

Meanwhile, Disney+ also saw a modest increase in the previous three months and now stands at a total 118.1 million paid subscribers, up a little more than 2 million for the quarter, and up about 44.4 million year-over-year thanks to the global rollout of the service. That number is a worldwide total and includes Disney+ Hotstar and Star+ services in various international markets.

ESPN+, meanwhile, added about 2.2 million subscribers for the quarter to stand at 17.1 million total, up about 5.6 million year-over-year.

What is Pluto TV: channels, where to get it, and more
Pluto TV channel guide on a TV screen.

With so many streaming services available these days, keeping which shows and movies are on which streaming platforms can be a true hassle. Options like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video deliver top tier programming, but it comes at a cost, one that has continued to rise as major streamers keep raising prices. If you're looking for a different option, then checking out advertising video on demand (AVOD) and free ad-supported streaming television (FAST) services may be just the ticket.

Pluto TV, is one of those AVOD/FAST(we’ll refer to it as free streaming going forward) services that comes at the low, low price of free.

The price increases will continue until morale -- or the bottom line -- improves. The three streaming services that fall under the Disney umbrella -- that's Disney+, ESPN+, and Hulu -- are once again the subject of price increases. It's far from the first time, and very likely won't be the last.

Here's how everything shakes out this time around:

Sling TV slips below 2 million subscribers, and it seems OK with that
Sling TV logo on Apple TV.

There’s a fallacy in the term “Streaming Wars” — a phrase I’ve never liked — in that it’s all about growth at all costs. That the only way to “win” said “war” is to be the biggest streaming service. That’s the game we’ve been taught by the likes of the Googles and Facebooks of the world, and it’s undoubtedly a big part of why Google’s YouTube TV sits atop the heap of live-streaming services with more than 8 million subscribers.

Then there’s Sling TV. The legacy service has been slowly, but consistently losing subscribers over the years, while always hovering at just above 2 million. That’s changed, though, according to its first-quarter 2024 earnings, which were announced by new parent company EchoStar. Sling TV finished with 1.92 million subs, down from 2.06 million at the end of 2023, and down about 8.5% from the first quarter of 2023. It hasn't been below 2 million since I started tracking it in 2018.
