I have Fire Stick and Roku and prefer the Fire Stick interface. Disney+ will be on there soon.

Also, the Alexa search works pretty well and it allows me to control my Wifi lights from the remote.

I'm a Harmony remote guy so I don't use the Fire TV remote, but I do know that people bought the fire stick just for the remote to use with the Shield TV, so it's doing something right.

Disney + is coming the UK and Western Europe on March 31st

Now who really in Europe is going to be able to avoid spoilers for over 4 months before watching The Mandalorian? I'm not judging or assuming it's going to be pirated, but the likelihood is very high, especially with the 4 month wait.

Nice, I just got the Firestick to utilize Hulu Live and I love it. My old generation Apple TV didn’t have Hulu Live and not sure about Disney+

6AM my time, so if I get up early I can try it out before work and either not be able to wait to get back home to watch more or be pissed all day at how much it sucks.

I find it a bit odd too. I mean it’s got to be ready by now. You’d think they’d want to have it ready for people to have downloaded already. Not sure the point of waiting until the last minute.

Maybe they'll pull a U2 and the app will just show up on everyone's devices Tuesday AM.

I don’t see the difference. It’s not like we can do anything with it now.

But you won't have everyone trying to download it at one time, possibly crashing the system. Everyone can get it downloaded, ready to go and have any problems ironed out.

I'm off from work on Tuesday, so I anticipate spending a nice chunk of my day watching The Mandalorian and then being overwhelmed with all the other shows and movies on there.

That’s my line of thinking too. Probably going to be a lot of people trying to download at one time. Might create some hiccups on launch day. Could have allowed people to download as they subscribe just so they have it and can sign in day of launch. Ultimately it’s whatever I guess because it’s close now anyways. They could have put some preview content up or whatever if nothing else (behind the scenes type things, trailers, etc.) just so something was on it.

I didn't pre-order but I think they should be able to download the app first.

If you think that’s bad about having no app, think about what’s happening in Canada, as we haven’t been able to subscribe to the service yet and this is being rolled out in the same day as the US.

Why would downloading off various different app stores / devices cause it to crash? That has nothing to do with the server it will stream on. If it is going to crash, it is going to be when you login and try to stream. Whether you're able to download it today or on Tuesday won't avoid that if it were to happen.
