Ad-Supported Disney+ Now Available for Spectrum TV Select Customers

Charter Communication and Disney jointly announced today that the ad-supported version of Disney+ is now available in all Spectrum TV Select packages nationwide at no additional cost.

What’s Happening:

Charter video customers can immediately begin streaming iconic entertainment from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National Geographic, including movies, TV shows and original programs through the Xumo Stream Box or any other Disney+ supported device.
Spectrum TV Select customers can learn more and activate their Disney+ Basic subscription by creating an account at no additional cost at spectrum.com/cp/disney-plus.
Customers who already have Disney+ can go to the website or app where Disney+ was purchased to manage their subscriptions to receive the full benefit of their Spectrum-provided service.
In addition to Disney+ Basic, Charter plans to begin including complimentary access to ESPN+ in its Spectrum TV Select Plus video package in the coming months.

What They’re Saying:

Tom Montemagno, Executive Vice President, Programming Acquisition for Charter: “With the launch of the Disney+ Basic offer, TV Select customers can now enjoy access to Disney’s popular streaming content as well as their high-quality linear TV channels, all included as part of one video package. As the video industry continues to evolve, we are committed to including direct-to-consumer apps like Disney+ with Spectrum services while providing a simplified TV viewing experience through platforms such as the Xumo Stream Box. We are pleased to partner with Disney to further this goal to the benefit of our mutual customers.”
Justin Connolly, President, Platform Distribution, The Walt Disney Company: “The inclusion of Disney+ alongside a curated lineup of our TV channels brings the best of both worlds from Disney’s unrivaled entertainment portfolio to Charter’s video customers. Our goal has always been to meet consumers where they are, and these collective offerings will maximize value for Spectrum TV Select customers while simultaneously broadening the audience of our advertiser supported streaming services.”
