Current subscribers that bundle Disney+ and Hulu + Live will see their package decrease because the price decrease essentially drops what the Disney bundle with Hulu and live TV costs. the ad-supported live TV offering is currently $72.99 a month while the ad-free offering is $78.99 a month. Non-bundled Hulu + Live TV subscribers will no longer have the option to opt-out of the bundle.
