Valuation is precisely why I believe Disney is the better streaming stock to buy in 2025. Its stock trades at a forward P/E ratio of 20, a sizable 50% discount to Netflix. Add this to competitive strengths and rising profits, and it can produce market-beating returns for investors over the next few years.

Under the new pricing in the U.S., Netflix’s Standard plan without ads will rise by $2.50 — going from $15.49 to $17.99 per month. It’s been three years since Netflix upped the pricing of the Standard tier, which provides two simultaneous HD streams.
