Netflix, Disney+, and Max on the seat bill

Netflix only passes “netflix vs disney plus” hype if per-active-seat price is written down.

Disney+ shows near “best streaming 2026”; measure real seats, not the brochure.

Keep Max ready to freeze the shortlist if family plans hide overage.

Fails that kill annual

• Seats on Netflix/Disney+ sold without active logins.
• Family plan on Max with no device cap.
• “cheap streaming” never becomes cost per seat.
• Incomplete sheet with 2+ seats.

Seat go / no-go
