If it's called NASA Plus, how is it free? The "plus" means it goes a step beyond their free content and into a paid tier.
Don't get me wrong this is absolutely fantastic I adore NASA and space, but they're just be some hidden cost? Otherwise it wouldn't be a streaming service called NASA Plus, right?
I don't think everyone sat down and agreed to that being what plus means. It's like labeling food as organic, it means nothing. It's just a name. Odd thing to obsess over, you'll get nowhere trying to understand marketing people, just let it go.
What they are adding is a more condensed experience accessing NASA content and making it easier for casual viewers to access. The more people paying attention to science the better. I think this is a fantastic move from NASA
Why do you think the organic label for food means nothing?

Compared to the standards for organic in civilized countries, that's basically nothing.
