    Hope Apple and Disney just work together. Merging or Apple buying Disney can close divisions and be too big. Innovation requires flexible, smaller companies with focus.

    I think content is on the way, the device is still only two months old. Do ya’ll remember (if you were around back then and able to do so) when the iPhone came out and how much was available to do on it? Not much. Mostly the same as the Vision Pro right now. A bunch of small apps, some cool or neat little things, but most not good at all. It took a few years for good content to come out. Same as video game systems, each time a new generation launches, there’s just not much content that is good for the first year or so, until developers can get the hang of working on it. I’d definitely love to see more too, but I’m willing to give it time. If we are still waiting and wondering, say in a year or so, then that would be…unacceptable and a failure on their parts.

    Apple doesn’t need Disney. Disney needs apple. And id prefer if they kept it that way. Disney sucks. Apple is on fire. No more cooks in the kitchen needed.

    I would like to see Apple as far away from Disney as possible if anything but to stop films like Marvel being forced to have everyone holding boring iPhones in every scene or worse “only the heroes would have iPhones”. Way too cookie cutter.

    For example:
    Tony Stark needed to have the original LG Wing 2008, Nick Fury needed to have the HTC One M8. (Along with Sharon Carter). Are we only gonna see the cool phones on the villains like Baron Zemo?

    I don’t wanna have to be stuck but being able to watch Disney+ on Apple TV on a browser because there’s no Android app for it. Then it’s useless on my (3D) Smart TV. I only use Google enabled TVs.

    Google had tap and pay years before Apple did. If anything? Google should be the Disney partner.

    Apple DOES need Disney! Apple needs a way to get people to buy a Vision Pro. They can’t sell it on productivity apps alone. As can be seen by the Vision Pro demo at the Apple Store, the emphasis is on entertainment. Disney provides this. Apple needs Disney to provide 3D content and apps to help sell the Vision Pro.

    Disney has produced a series of ridiculous flops and streaming has been a big loser especially since it trained people to not go to theatres for Disney stuff when they are already paying for it on streaming. All the creativity we associate with Disney is gone and has been replaced by entrenched DEI types. For the new Disney, message is more important than financial success. They have ignored bad test results for movies and pushed them out apparently for message. Disney has run Star Wars and Marvel into the ground; none of the huge fanbase for either is enthusiastic about Disney making any more movies. There are youtube channels devoted to documenting how the toys for both of these IP’s do NOT sell. The parks are nothing compared to Universal’s parks. Apple should avoid wasting money on this dumpster fire.

    It would be wise for Apple to create Vision Pro experiences based on older disney movies that people love, instead of the new stuff that no one likes

    All of you are making the same dumb comment. She never said Apple needs Disney more than Disney needs Apple. She just said Apple needs Disney

    Don’t understand why people would want to sit with one of these headsets on their own for long periods of time but I suppose gamers do this already.

    Apple doesn’t need Disney. They already have a magic mouse.

    Nooooo…Apple is as disgustingly woke as Disney.

    Bob Igor is dying to sell Disney to Apple. This video could probably be pushed by Disney 😂😂😂
