Just figured out why my media devices keep pointing to India's site. Turns out my ISP has this FreedomDNS service that automatically configures streaming channels to certain countries and in this case it points to Hotstar India even though my public IP is Shah Alam.

I thought i disconnect that service. IT works back end so i dont really feel it and only on certain streaming sites.

You are welcome.

Well that is the compromise you have to deal with if connect to TV from your laptop.
Anyway if you really want to take advantage of the app from the TV, I suggest you take a smartDNS service to enjoy the best from Disney+.
But as I said, you can only access the US version, not the other countries version.

But US subscription more expensive 😅

Anyways we can’t access US disney plus with local subscription right? Like how I access India disney plus with Malaysian subscription.

Yep more expensive, but you get more DV/DA contents on D+ than D+H MY.
The only drawback is no local content in there.
And oh a better app experience and 4 devices per stream.
I am still going to pay for my US version and maybe will use my MY subscription for local content.
RM5 only per month for me.

Nope, because we have a different version of D+ aka D+H.
Whereas SG D+ subscription can access Canada, US, UK, AU, NZ etc (where D+ subscription is supported) at any time.
Whether via VPN or travelling there.
Our D+H is designed for third world countries, so the access will be available only in our country and they did this so that people from other countries cannot subscribe to a cheaper version of D+.
That is my take on D+H vs D+.

Ah got it. wow SG D+ can access US etc as well.

Unfortunately we all live in 3rd world country. Not sure how many complaints on Disney plus but probably it’s only less than 20 percent population while SG if got complain is like 80 percent. Face it there will be trade offs and unless we are gonna have gdp and high income power for majority of the population we will continue to live with lesser frills services depending on how much we r willing to pay. (Again depending on how much service provider does their marketing and all the corporate shenanigans when it comes to broadcasting rights here)

Even if some of us unsubscribe I’m sure there are masses willing to pay and don’t want Dolby atmos (or can’t really tell the difference).
