Last month, Walt Disney’s ESPN, Fox, and Warner Bros. Discovery announced a new streaming bundle that will offer 16 live sports channels and none of the non-sports related channels. For sports fans, this may be the dream service, letting them watch sports without paying for things like the Disney Channel or MTV. So, what do we know about this service? Here is everything we know about this new sports streaming service.
Pricing:
Early reports had the service costing more than $30 a month. Later, some reports said it would likely cost $40 to $50 a month. Now Fox says the service will be in the “higher ranges” of the estimates, likely meaning the service will cost between $40 and $50 a month. This is from Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media and Telecom conference this month.
No official final price has been announced for this new service.
Release Date:
It is reported that this new streaming service will launch in the late summer of 2024. It is hoped to be live in time for the start of the college football season.
Streaming Through Max, Hulu, & Others:
At Warner Bros. Discovery’s 4th quarter 2023 earnings call it confirmed that this new service will be bundled with Max. Disney has already confirmed that you will be able to subscribe to this new streaming service through services like Hulu and ESPN+.
