How to get Disney + the service.
Before you do anything else you need to head over to disneyplus.com and sign up for the service there.
Pricing
If you are in the United States either you pick 6.99/month or you pick 69.99/year. This price undercuts the 13 monthly fee for Netflix’s most popular plan in the US. Either or will start your streaming from Disney. If you do not like the options that are presented Disney plus will offer you once the service has launched a get all things Disney package. You can for 12.99 get Disney +, Hulu with commercials, and Espn + if you want it. This still undercuts Netflix, as you get all 3 services for 13.00 a month where as you only get Netflix for the same price. You will however not get the founders circle badge if you decide to go this route. If you are outside the United States you do need to wait until March 2020 to get your stream on. Some areas might even be a longer wait and Disney has not announced those dates yet. If you want you can get Disney + as a standalone then Hulu as a standalone as well commercial free, and as long as they are on the same email account, you will get a 5.00 credit for getting both per month, but the downside is you will be billed separately for each service.
If you are on Verizon you can get Disney + for free as long as you are with one of these plans. If you have Verizon Fios, Verizon 4G, or Verizon 5G then you qualify for Disney +. If you want more details you can see them here.

What features does Disney + include
Disney + will stream to 1080p, 4k, 4k Ultra HD in Dolby Vision, HDR 10, and Dolby Atmos. Disney has not included which content will be able to do this as each piece of content is subjected to what it can do. So do not expect a 70’s movie to have all the above qualities tied to it. Every Disney account can stream up to 4 devices simultaneously which means you can stream on your TV in the living room, bedroom, kids room, and on your phone all at the same time. For your account you can set up 7 different profiles allowing each member to have content picked for them based on what they have watched previously. So if Dad is into Star Wars and you are into Cinderella you will have content curated for you based on what you want and not someone else wants. Each account can pick an avatar from Disney, Pixar, Marvel or Star Wars, and at launch Disney will have over 200 avatars available to choose from.
Offline Viewing
Disney plus will allow unlimited mobile downloads for offline viewing. Subscribers can download to up to 10 mobile or tablet devices, with no limit on how many times you can download that content. Just remember you can’t download everything as your storage on that device will depend on how much you can download.
Languages at Launch
The Service will support English, Spanish, French, and Dutch at launch, and support subtitles for the content that will be on at launch and thereafter.
