Internet streaming services have seen a Hugh spike in new subscribers since countries and most states in the U.S. have issued stay-at-home orders. One of these services is Disney+.
Between Saturday, March 14, 2020, and Monday, March 16, 2020, the number of Disney+ signups more than tripled compared to the same period from the week prior, according to data provided exclusively to Forbes from streaming analytics firm Antenna.
Coinciding with school closures across the country, the period saw the biggest gain for family-friendly Disney+ in 2020.
Netflix saw a more modest 47% increase in the number of subscriber additions, but it is still a solid boost for the streaming giant that already has 61 million paid memberships in the U.S.
Apple saw only a 10% rise in new subscribers compared to the week before, the lowest of any of the major streaming services.
