The Disney Movie Club opened nearly 25 years ago, and while the service will end this summer, participants can expect some great perks before their memberships expire.
In an official update for subscribers, it was confirmed that the service will be shutting down this year. Disney Movie Club members have until May 20th to place orders and all accounts will be closed on July 20th. Those who haven’t met their commitment status have had their accounts marked as fulfilled, so there won’t be any additional costs to worry about or anything like that. The following message was published on the club’s official social pages:
“After 23 magical years, it is time to say goodbye. After serving over 10 million valued Club members, we have made the difficult decision to close the Disney Movie Club. We will miss the opportunity to be a part of the lives of so many Disney fans , including you, but we are forever grateful for the time you chose to spend with us. But we’re not done yet! In the months ahead, we’ll be stacking perks to celebrate you, our loyal Member. Look for amazing offers to help you complete the your collection with the films you love, for memories you will cherish forever.
Starting now, club members can get a 60% discount on additional titles after purchasing one at the regular price. It is expected that further sales will be initiated before the end of the service.
As first reported by The Digital Bits, Sony Pictures Entertainment has signed a deal with Disney to take over the company’s physical media business. In the future, Sony will produce, distribute and market Disney’s DVD and Blu-ray releases, as well as other physical media. This means that future Disney releases will still be available through physical and digital retailers, it’s just that the studio will let another company handle that side of the business from now on.
Have you ever been a Disney Movie Club subscriber? Are you a DVD or Blu-Ray collector? Hopefully this process will proceed seamlessly and the launch of physical copies will proceed without interruption.
