ESPN+ is a streaming service that targets cable subscribers and cord cutters. ESPN+ is made up of content you can’t get on ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, etc. ESPN has been promoting the service to hardcore sports fans regardless of whether they have a cable subscription or are cord cutters.
Many have argued that ESPN+ is not a true cord cutting option because it does not replace anything you would get with a cable subscription. Instead, ESPN+ is more about giving hardcore sports fans additional sporting events on top of their live TV streaming subscription or cable subscription.
