Why?

The reason for all the price jumps on other services is due to them not owning all the content they offer. Disney owns all the content for this service. This means they do not have to negotiate streaming rights for every market around the world.

Nice to hear. For $6.99 / month, just the star wars library and the Simpson's library has me.
Prices will go up after a year I’m betting, this price is to get people hooked before prices go up. Netflix pulled this plenty of times

It’s weird seeing that the U.K. isn’t getting it at the same as all those other countries
Takes extra time to translate all those shows into British English.

It started at $8/mo and is now $13/mo. They haven't even doubled the price and yet delivered everyone tons of more content - licensed and originals. To say they "pulled this plenty of times" is a bit of a stretch.
