@MarkGoldsmith Does that mean we won't be getting the same level of TNT that we get on discovery plus?

[Racinchic72]

Just to confirm about max will have Netflix and tnt?

So why am I going to be paying subscriptions for tnt and Netflix?

Im contracted till next year but if this service is now part of my package why on earth am I paying nearly £40 a month for them 2.

Sky already get £300 a month out me, bet they dont cancel my contract

You won't be getting any TNT Sport on Discovery +, its moving over to HBO Max.

This particular change is due to WDB splitting into 2 companies. "Global Networks" (which is essentially the TV channels) and "Streaming and Studios" (which is HBO Max, DC, Warner Bros, and the international versions of TNT Sports, also known as the half of WDB that Netflix is trying to purchase).

Netflix ( currently) has got nothing to do  HBO Max, no Netflix content is on HBO Max. Where you may be getting slightly confused is that Netflix is in the process of purchasing half of Warner Bros. Discovery (which is the half of the business that owns HBO Max).

TNT Sports isn't included by default in HBO Max ( as it isn't on Discovery +) . If you want access to the TNT Sports tier on HBO Max, you still need to pay the £30ish per month ( as is currently the case on Discovery +). The way that TNT Sports operates isn't changing at all, its just the TNT Sports streaming home moves from Discovery + to HBO Max, so TNT Sports paid customers will need to access HBO Max once it launches to watch the TNT Sports streams/on-demand content instead of Discovery +.

@DJP3 TNT Sports is not included in the HBO Max Subscription, it is just moving onto the HBO Max app from the Discovery+ app

[DJP3]

[Racinchic72]

The price to have TNTs sports from HBO app directly is same price  as it was using discovery + app £31 for sport only £33 with entertainment. If you subscribe TNT sports though Sky you will get the sports service though the HBO max as well at no extra cost. However if you do not subscribe to TNT sports though Sky. For Sky Q customers the only HBO max  content you will get from Sky is the entertainment package and basic Disney plus  and it only  at no extra cost to exsisting customers that have Sky signature and probably the utilmate tv pack, if you don't have either of these in you package and for new customers after 26 March  Sky are charging  £24 a month for the ultimate pack.   to get the new services.

@DaveDrizen again this is not correct you are getting confused between the Stream product of Ultimate  which is effectively Netflix + Signature rather than the Ultimate add on on SKY Q the utimate add on, on Q only gives you access to netflix which is always listed in bills separately even when it has been bundled with Signature.

I have received an email today that disney+ will be part of my subscription from March. Does this mean it will be free or will there be extra charges? I normally use my tesco vouchers to buy disney+ for 3 months  and disney+ has just come on on blue light card as a reduced subscription so I'm confused what is the best deal (if it is free part of my sky subscription then that's an easy answer)

[Super+Anthony]

@MarkGoldsmith I understand that but I got confused as you mentioned basic tier of TNT and I was just wondering if you will get everything the same, but on HBO Max rather than discovery plus

Thank you for providing great help as always

Hi All,

I see that Disney+ with ads will be included with sky from March.

For those that already have Disney+, will this work the same way as the billing process for Netflix?  I get the impression that this will only apply to those that get Disney+ through sky already.

I currently pay for Disney+ directly to Disney.

It says on the FAQs that if you get Disney+ from another provider, you will have to cancel this first. Does this apply to those who pay directly to Disney?

Thanks.

@Al+East+Lothian 

No, it'll work the same as Netflix, so if you transfer your existing Disney+ account to Sky, the billing will switch from Disney+ to Sky and your direct monthly payments to Disney+ will pause. 

To quote Sky's FAQ:

Disney will pause your monthly subscription or refund your annual plan when you activate with Sky.
