Discovery+ (pronounced "Discovery Plus"; stylized as discovery+) is an American streaming service owned by Warner Bros. Discovery. The service focuses on factual programming drawn from the libraries of Discovery's main channel brands, as well as original series (including spin-offs of programs from Discovery's networks), and other acquired content. It was first launched in India on March 23, 2020. It launched in the United States on January 4, 2021, and replaced Discovery's Dplay and Eurosport Player services in Europe the next day. As of March 31, 2022,[update] Discovery+ has 24 million subscribers. Discovery+ became a sister service to WarnerMedia's HBO Max following their merger in April 2022. WBD had announced plans for Discovery+ and HBO Max to be replaced by a new service, although it was later reported that WBD planned to maintain Discovery+ alongside the new enlarged service as part of an amended streaming strategy.
