Makes sense but much of their content is being paywalled over to ESPN+ content - requiring the membership.
Had a big amount of layoffs a week or so ago.

I'll sign back up when the college basketball season starts.

Yeah. I'm expecting a few games for KU to be on ESPN+. Maybe a conference game or two and a few non-con games.

Have enjoyed some of the soccer on there. So I've kept it.

They've put Matthew Berry behind a paywall which is a bummer.

ESPN+ is worth every penny. Probably the best paid membership available on the internet.

Agree.
I wish they'd link those who had accounts to be able to watch ESPN, ESPN2 to ESPN+ and give a discount - and then up the cost for those who don't.

Agree. Well maybe Netflix 1, but espn+ #2....and if you bundle with disney+ & hulu it is easily the most bang for your buck.

You get what you pay for. And if you like actual content that isn't slideshows and Maxim-magazine-in-1999-type garbage, then you have to pay.

I pay for ESPN+, The Athletic, Seth Keysor's newsletter, Craig Calcaterra's newsletter and Defector. And a few newspaper websites also.

I'm glad that people whose work I love to read can make reasonable livings doing it their way.

Yes. But used to be that ads paid those bills and we paid for the service. Now you gotta pay the cable AND the extras if you want coverage that used to be included. Thats my gripe.

I've seen all the Marvel movies and i'm not that into Star Wars.

I agree, but the bundle cuts the cost down. Plus, the original content and national geographic material make it worth the 5-6 bucks a month.

If you sign up for ESPN+ be aware that it is a lifetime commitment. There is no quitting. I tried to quit over the summer. Oh no. They wouldn’t hear of it.

My only recourse was to cancel the credit card it was being auto billed to.

I cancelled without any hassle.
Did it all online, the internet they call it.

Yeah a definite easy to cancel. Cancelled once already, and then signed back up later.
