As previously reported, the Hulu standalone app will be phased out in 2026, at which point Disney will unveil a "unified" Disney+ and Hulu app. However, consumers will still be able to purchase a stand-alone subscription to either Disney+ or Hulu; both will be available through the same app, albeit with content restrictions depending on your subscription.
Are these hikes making you rethink your Disney+ or Hulu subscription? Let us know below.
