I’m guessing Apple TV+ didn’t even come close to these Disney+ numbers because if they had then we would be hearing about it through a press release of some sort. Regardless, they were never going to come close, mostly due to the Mouse House having a way more stacked catalogue of original and archival content than Apple’s. It doesn’t help that they also have their newly acquired Fox catalogue as well, which had been bought primarily for the streaming service. These numbers aren’t surprising, but what has had people scratching heads is the “outdated cultural depictions” warning that shows up on-screen right before some of the streaming platform’s older content plays. Before such movies play, another message appears which reads, “The cartoons you are about to see are products of their time. They may depict some of the ethnic and racial prejudices that were commonplace in American society. These depictions were wrong then and are wrong today. While these cartoons do not represent today’s society, they are being presented as they were originally created, because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed.” Way to CYA, Disney.
