I wonder if we can try it if we use a VPN...

 

 

 

 

Not easily, as you can see. The biggest hurdle will be tricking PayPal into thinking you're in the Netherlands. Not exactly an easy hack.

 

The rest is annoyances, as detailed in the last two tweets.

Consumers in the Netherlands became the first in the world to get their hands on Disney Plus when an early version of the hugely anticipated streaming service went live in the country Thursday in a free trial run.

 

Disney is testing out the platform in the Netherlands, and the soft-launch version does not have the raft of originals series and content that will be part of the official full-fat offering. A launch date of Nov. 12 has been set for Disney Plus in the Netherlands, the same as in the U.S. and Canada. Australia and New Zealand are slated to follow a week later.

 

In the Netherlands – where, ironically, Netflix has its European headquarters – Disney fans can now sign up for the free trial and start streaming a selection of catalogue fare from Disney, as well as Pixar, Marvel, “Star Wars” and National Geographic content. They can run up to four concurrent streams, have unlimited downloads, and set up as many as seven profiles. Parents can set up kid-specific profiles that open a child-friendly interface with age-appropriate content.

Even stuff like Infinity War and Last Jedi which they said weren't going to be launch titles? I see them on the menu.

If something isn't available at launch, I doubt it will be there unless the licensing deals allow them.  For instance, I've heard that Disney doesn't have some of the same deals with Netflix over in the Netherlands that they do in the States.  So it could be that some of the films that won't be avaialble right away in some countries might be there.

I believe they might be launch titles there but not in the States. I don't know how the Disney-Netflix deal works, but maybe rights are different from country to country

But I only have Australian, US and UK iTunes accounts.

Omg first day back at work, in a cast, but no ice or elevation equals a lot of pain.  I took an actual pain pill, but not as strong as dilauded.  Hoping to knock the pain out, and I am iced and elevated.  

 

I did not expect my foots reaction to work!  They were very happy to have me back though.

i feel so angry iu just wnat to smash everything.

 

Ive spent 2 hours on a bridge over a motorway. trying to stop my friend jumping. I was right behind him and he was going to die. and i was helpless because i would try and get him back and he would lean forward and i would grab him and .

 

the police and fire brigade, ambulance came and i was fine i was directing traffic and looking after my friends parents and while i was doing that i was calm and collected like I usually am. and ive got home and I feel so violent and angry and I need to hit something or someone. I've called doctors and spoke to family and friends but it isnt helping.

please someone reply i just want someone who doesn't know me to tell me I did the right thing and that it will be okay

 

he was dragged away by the police cuffed and sent to hospital and he will be sectioned.

 

it took TWO HOURS for a negotiator to arrive, what a joke, fucking stupid pricks

[Avatree]

he left the pub and then texted me to say he is standing on a bridge and I just drove as fast as i could to find him and help him

[cannastop]

 

[Avatree]

I had to look after his mum and tell them he was going to be okay. Can you even imagine. you are watching your child attempt to kill them selves. She was hysterical. i am so sorry for her.

You definitely did the right thing. Maybe talk to a therapist though. I don't know how that works in the UK.
