    Espn launching new subscription service thursday april 12 called espn+

    espn plus 4.99 a month

    they are showing the 30 for 30 bobby knight on it so don't look for it on regular espn

    also you will get

    As far as live events go, here’s what the service has:

    • One MLB game every day during baseball season.
    • One NHL game every day during hockey season.
    • A “selection of exclusive main event” boxing fights, and more undercard fights.
    • Every out-of-market MLS game (subject to blackouts) and local-market Chicago Fire games.
    • College sports from these conferences: “America East, ASun, Big South, Big West, Horizon, Ivy League, MAAC, MAC, MEAC, Missouri Valley, NEC, Southern Conference, Southland, Summit League, Sun Belt, WAC, and many more.”
    • PGA Tour coverage including Thursday, Friday, and “some” Saturday and Sunday play.
    • Grand Slam tennis coverage that’s billed as a “complement” for tennis fans.
    • Rugby and cricket coverage.

    $4.99 seems like a good deal but like a lot of others on here, I don't like ESPN anymore so I won't be buying.

    Sounds a lot better than it is. Need a qualifying subscription to get most the stuff still. They give 1 MLB game per day - yay, mlb.tv gives 1 free game a day without needing a subscription. They're basically just trying to get people to pay for their current ESPN app, plus a couple other small benefits.

    I will say that I didn't realize it included all the college stuff, that is actually real nice for college hoops season - assuming it has their games like the current ESPN app does, I love the smaller conferences. Other than that their focus is boxing, cricket, soccer, rugby and tennis. Yuck.

    i signed up for it and i think i figured out what this espn plus is all about when u sign up u get access to the pga tour live which if u sign up at the pga tour website is 5.99 a month so u get access to featured group and other things, then u get 1 baseball game a day which is basically what mlb tv gives u is one free game a day, then they give u other sports like rugby tennis so on so on, so basically espn worked out a deal with the other sports and networks and when u sign up for espn plus u get a little bit of everything

    So you can get it on Roku.

    Seems like a good deal for MLS soccer.

    MLS live used to be 70 a year

    On Watch ESPN it's through a network. But I don't get ESPNU. I'm interested in the MLS thing.
