Netflix and Hulu will eventually win the streaming wars. Disney owns most of Hulu though.

I always thought Netflix and Disney+ were the only profitable streaming services. Turns out Disney+ is making huge losses.
Netflix and Hulu are the only ones making a profit.

I didn't even know that there were profitable streaming services

I knew about Netflix but had no idea Hulu was profitable as well. I wonder what Comcast will do with their stake in Hulu then.

Hulu has kept away from a lot of prestige television. It will continue existing series and make new series based on established creators, but it doesn’t seem to go for the high spectacle that other streamers do. It also has long term deals to stream TV shows.
I think Comcast is looking to sell its stake as long as it is a minority shareholder to Disney. However, it may want to keep Hulu around to ensure that Hulu’s content doesn’t get swallowed up by Disney+.

You know I felt the same way about Hulu too but my friend shared their subscription and I found a decent amount of shows I’d consider “prestige”.
