    plus just means more I think, they’re adding to their service so it’s “plus”

    just because that’s usually a hook to get you to pay more doesn’t mean that’s now the definition of the word

      sure. However “plus” means that something is additional to something else. And the question here is what is the basic product that makes this one be the additional

        You’re really trying to make this more complicated than it is. Should they just call it NASA? NASA Streaming? NASA VOD?

        It’s just a catchy name.

              From their generic FAQ:

              What is Disney+?

              Disney+ is the streaming home for entertainment from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and National Geographic.

              from my limited perspective, the word “plus” is to indicate the rest studios/companies that are included in the Disney (parent) company

            That’s actually what it has kinda came to mean. Lots of Streaming services are called “Plus”, even if they don’t have a separate non-free version.
