Disney+ and Hulu End App Store Sign-Ups to Bypass Apple's Fees

Disney and Hulu have removed in-app subscription options, directing users to sign up via their websites to avoid Apple's 15-30% commission.

New Disney+ and Hulu subscribers must now sign up through the services' websites, as in-app sign-ups on Apple devices have been discontinued.
Existing subscribers billed through Apple are not affected and can continue managing their subscriptions via the App Store.
This move follows Disney's recent price increases for both streaming services, with Disney+ and Hulu plans seeing a rise of $1 to $2.
Disney's decision aligns with other companies like Netflix and Spotify, which have also eliminated App Store subscription options to cut costs.
Apple maintains that its App Store facilitates broad reach and secure transactions, despite losing commissions from these streaming services.
