Part 6/10:
One persistent critique of Disney’s streaming offerings is the perceived lack of compelling, up-to-date content. Unlike Netflix or HBO Max, which constantly refresh their libraries with diverse and mature programming, Disney+ often relies heavily on its existing catalog, mainly family-friendly titles.
Within this context, rumors swirl that Disney is considering a controversial shift: adding adult or more mature content to Disney+. This concept has been floated amidst discussions among company executives, notably between Bob Iger and Bob Chapek. Iger, known for his cautious stance, reportedly prefers keeping the platform strictly family-oriented, while Chapek pushes for expanding content appeal to broader age groups.
