Disney+ dropped a massive update yesterday when it announced its expansion to 44 countries and 11 new territories. That includes Albania, Algeria, Andorra, Bahrain, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Egypt, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kosovo, Kuwait, Latvia, Lebanon, Libya, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Malta, Montenegro, Morocco, North Macedonia, Oman, Palestine, Poland, Qatar, Romania, San Marino, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Tunisia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, Vatican City, Yemen, The Faroe Islands, French Polynesia, French Southern Territories, St. Pierre and Miquelon Overseas Collective, Aland Islands, Saint Maarten, Svalbard & Jan Mayen, British Indian Ocean Territory, Gibraltar, Pitcairn Islands, and St. Helena.
Disney+ is currently available in 61 countries and the number of its subscribers was 118 million by the end of 2021. With HBO, the situation is a little more complicated. HBO Max is available in almost 50 countries and territories, but HBO still counts its subscribers as a combination of HBO Max and other services (HBO Go for instance), which are being slowly replaced by HBO Max as a part of the service rollout. The combined number of subscribers published yesterday was 73.8 million, including 46.8 million domestic (U.S.) subscribers. HBO Max is currently available in 46 countries and it is set to roll out in a further 21 European territories in 2022, possibly in the summer, but that is yet to be announced by HBO.
Just to compare, Netflix is currently available for streaming in over 190 countries with a worldwide total of 221.84 million users, adding 8.3 million new users in 2021.
