Hulu says its multi-year agreement with The Walt Disney Studios means it will have “exclusive subscription video on-demand rights to a collection of hit movies and family favorites from Disney’s library of blockbuster films.”

Next up for Hulu is a live TV streaming service that the company says will launch sometime in 2017.
Hulu’s competitors have also been busy this year with new features and service launches. Netflix finally brought offline playback support to movies and TV shows from its catalog last month, and AT&T launched DirecTV Now which offers live TV streaming and on-demand content.
Hulu’s video service is available for $7.99/month with ads or $11.99/month commercial-free. Hulu is available on the iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and the web.
