"Content may vary by territory"

WHY DISNEY?! YOU OWN THE F*****G RIGHTS OF EVERYTHING!

I would like to apologize for my outburst.

And of course, just as is with NetFlix, it will probably have 50% less content than the US version. Black pirate flags shall rise again!

Unless you are a teenager, there is no point in subscribing to this service. Just a bunch of chest-bumping superhero overproduced garbage shows and films. I will stay with Netflix, thank you very much.
