Disney is offering a new year promotion for its ad-supported Disney+ Hulu bundle. New and eligible returning subscribers can get the first month for just $10. This represents a $3 discount from the standard monthly rate and a significant savings compared to paying for each service individually. It's a limited-time offer aimed at attracting fresh users after the holiday season.

While not as aggressive as last year's Black Friday deal—which offered the bundle for $5 monthly for a full year—this promotion still provides a low-cost way to sample the combined library. The Duo Basic plan is ideal for those wanting to test both platforms without a long-term commitment, though it includes advertisements on both services.

The bundle pairs Disney+'s family-friendly content, including Marvel and Star Wars franchises, with Hulu's adult-oriented series like *The Bear* and next-day network TV. For consumers, this creates a balanced streaming portfolio under one subscription. It's a strategic move by Disney to boost subscriber growth in a competitive market.
