Disney Eliminates Its Metaverse Division
The main problem with Metaverse is that it it's an amusement park without any rides.Disney is the sort of company that might have made some interesting rides.  A Mandalorian spin-off series of interactive VR episodes that can be experienced with a group of friends?  A lot of people would have bought VR headsets just for that.  Nobody's going to buy headsets to make a goofy looking avatar and hang out with Mark Zuckerberg in a Second Life remake. Experiences are what sell new entertainment technologies and Disney owns the IP to some pretty compelling experiences.The management of that rideless amusement park is also a little concerning.  I'd love to see VR finally go mainstream, but I'd prefer it if pretty much anyone other than Meta were behind the platform that catches on first.
