Vizio points to outdated Chromecast software as potential cause of streaming problems with Disney+
Here's a look at the new streaming challengers and what you get with each:
NEW PLAYERS
Disney+
Disney's entertainment service, featuring shows and movies from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National Geographic.
Launch date: November 12
Price: $7 a month or $70 a year. Getting Disney Plus with ESPN Plus and Hulu, both owned by Disney, will cost $13 a month.
Promotions: Seven-day free trial. Free year with all Verizon Wireless unlimited plans and when customers switch to Verizon's Fios Home Internet or 5G Home Internet.
Original shows: 'The Mandalorian,' a live-action 'Star Wars' series created by Jon Favreau. A prequel to the 'Star Wars' movie 'Rogue One.' A series about the Marvel character Loki. A rebooted 'High School Musical' series. A documentary series focused on Disney.
Other shows and movies: Animated classics, including 'Aladdin' and 'The Jungle Book,' will be available at launch; others will be added as streaming deals with other services expire. Movies released in 2019 or later will go to Disney Plus rather than a rival streaming service first. Disney Plus will also house past seasons of 'The Simpsons,' which Disney got through its purchase of Fox's entertainment business.
Apple TV+
Apple's entry into the streaming business.
Launch date: November 1
Price: $5 a month
Promotions: Seven-day free trial. A year free to buyers of a new iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, iPod Touch or Mac.
Original shows: A Jason Momoa series called 'See' and 'The Morning Show,' a comedy starring Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon and Steve Carrell. The service will launch with nine original shows and movies, with more expected each month.

Price: $15 a month
Promotions: Free for about 10 million existing HBO subscribers - those who get HBO through AT&T distribution platforms such as U-Verse and DirecTV, and those who get the HBO Now streaming service directly from HBO, rather than a cable or online partner such as Amazon. Free for customers of AT&T's higher-tier wireless and broadband offerings.
