>> Disney can probably copy what Netflix has today, but by the time they’ve done that, Netflix will have updated their platform hundreds of time

Last year Disney acquired BAMTech (a spun of MLB Media) - though less known, their technical chops when it comes to video streaming are already in Netflix territory.

Yeah the MLB media team really knows what they are doing. The MLB has long had the best tech out of the big 5 sports leagues in the US


They also have a contract to provide streaming for the NHL. Probably other leagues as well.


Just the NHL (for now) -- and MLB also handles production for the NHL TV network at this point as well.
