1) Upload on YouTubeIs there no other solution to offer old titles deemed to have no commercial value on a non-profit basis?
2) Disney's own FAST
3) Third party FAST (Tubi, Freevee, Vudu Free, Xumo, Pluto)
4) Let releases to public domain earlier
5) Deal with Shout Factory, Mill Creek, Criterion, WB Archive or Sony Home Entertainment to handle with releases to DVD, BD and digital for people to buy.
6) Include numbers of old contents in group when Disney license popular show out to other services like X-Files includes with Dollhouse, Shark and others for free)
@LinusFan303 strongly advocated Disney to make much of obscure contents available on Tubi in the US and @PF9 strongly advocated Criterion to releases on DVD, BD and digital.
I do think Disney want save some of contents for future FAST and they use on rotation basis to ensure that contents don't lose the value or gets old fast.
Disney is very slow to adapt the change with market.
If Hollywood studios see FAST as important and they would help someone to establish the infrastructure to run the FAST in other countries and find an organizations to see if they could handle with dubbing, or find and buy old dubbings back if it is owned by other companies. I don't know much with other countries and that is my guess answer.It will take time to wait for FAST services to become widespread and come to this side of the world, but even when it does, I doubt Disney will add pre-dubbed content that has aired in certain parts of the world in the past.
My guess is they aren't interested to lease and as for Dark Angel, it may be not streamable because of no clearance in place (based on unavailable with digital stores). My solution is if Amazon leases LA Law, so it should include with Dark Angel and Legend of the Seeker for free with LA Law and Amazon would haven't issue to add those on service. As for un-streamable due to no clearance, Disney would needs to contract with company to handle with clearance, or hire lawyers to do all works to get clearance. When contents get clearance, so it can be put on streaming services or lease out.Also, why didn't Disney make a global deal for these titles like WBD? For example, why isn't Netflix or Amazon interested in releasing Dark Angel or Legend of the Seeker?
Disney is one of most difficult to predict and I don't know about what Disney want contents to be end up.I don't know if Disney is holding on to pre-2001 FFW assets or pre-2019 20th Century assets to license them to 3rd party organizations. However, it seems that it is not certain that everything will be given there either.
Honest with you, I'm not too optimistic to see Disney make old contents streamable that can be accessed easily but I'm not giving out my hope and my hope is Disney change their tune to make them streamable in near future.In summary, my future predictions for how much legacy content streaming platforms will offer are pretty dark, and I don't think it will happen even if streaming becomes profitable.
