It's probably to idiot-proof it, so people don't download it early and complain they can't get in right away. Never underestimate people's willful ignorance.

I’m just saying. Apple TV was available to download and add series to watchlist prior to launch. What’s wrong with that?

Not a sense of security, but I was hoping the app would be available so I could get it set up over the long weekend. Guess I know what I’m doing Tuesday night.
For those of us who pre-paid, will we get an e-mail with login credentials or instructions?

And I get that the heaviest load will be when people actually start watching, but think it would make sense to at least lighten the load of people trying to sign in and stuff.
But whatever. It won’t make a huge difference either way.

I think it should be the same Disney account if you have DMR, ESPN, etc.

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.
But it's Disney so everything will go perfectly for everyone.

I apologize if this has been posted elsewhere (I didn't see it), but Disney + officially launches at 9AM Eastern time Tuesday. Just a heads up for any of you who were planning staying up late Monday night (it won't be a midnight launch).

my countdown clock indicates that it’s available at 6 a.m. Eastern.... just over 20 hours from now.

Yeah according to the countdown clock on the DisneyPlus.com page, it says it launches at 3am PT.
I have no plans to stay up that late or get up that early to watch The Mandalorian.

I’m curious, but what incentive does Apple have to make the App available right when the service launches? Right at 9:00? I wouldn’t be surprised if Apple takes its sweet time posting the App for download.
