Disney Brings Free Channels Back to Roku
Disney has made its free 24/7 channels available on the Roku Channel after shutting down its ABC app. Channels like ESPN8, 2020 24/7, General Hospital 24/7, and Nat Geo Locked Up Abroad are now streaming for free on the Roku platform. This marks Disney's increased efforts to diversify its free ad-supported content beyond just the Disney Channel.
Expanding Free Channels on Pluto TV and Plex
In addition to the Roku Channel updates, other free streaming platforms are also expanding their lineups. Plex has added over 100 free channels, including new additions like Judge Nosy, The Design Network, and a Christmas-themed channel. Pluto TV has also launched new classic cartoon channels featuring Pokemon, Go-Go Gadget, and Strawberry Shortcake.
