Fall of 2024 potential launch date. Sounds like we'll be going into 2025 with the same questions we all have right now 🙄read those who have espn+ and max will have access to the new app
Although it hasn't been determined yet, experts estimate the cost will be in the $40 - $50 a month range.read those who have espn+ and max will have access to the new app
That is insane. They will probably remove those channels from streaming services like Roku/Sling TV and make you pay if you want to watch sports in the US.Although it hasn't been determined yet, experts estimate the cost will be in the $40 - $50 a month range.

Success of ESPN-Fox-Warner Sports Streaming Bundle Hinges on a Key Question: What Will It Cost?
Disney/ESPN, Fox and Warner Bros. Discovery plan to launch a sports-centered streaming bundle. A critical question: What will it cost?variety.com
It sucks—it’s going to end up the way cable dominated for a while where someone pays big $ for a bunch of stuff they don’t care about.That is insane. They will probably remove those channels from streaming services like Roku/Sling TV and make you pay if you want to watch sports in the US.
We are there now. I fear the next step is $199.99/mth with commercialsIt sucks—it’s going to end up the way cable dominated for a while where someone pays big $ for a bunch of stuff they don’t care about.
No replay on max in us? How can you watch the race if you're not available early am due to work, etc?
I’m not opposed to the combining of channels and rights to different sports into one app, I am curious though if these companies will be able to pool their money together to bid on sports because this could become a power house app. One thing I notice here and elsewhere, like the soccer blogs is that people don’t like this because it may cost too much money monthly or yearly along with having a lot of sports they don’t want to watch. But we can’t generally have it all, they have to pay money for the creation of the app and to have sports and they can’t really give to us for a little of nothing. But I personally enjoy the fact that a lot of things will be on one place. More organized and not owning a lot of different apps to just watch something. But only my two cents.
I don’t agree but it’s just different perspectives I. Having cycling in the big broadcaster bundle (if that ends up with the only US rights to certain races) will cost more $ than now because you will have to pay for that expensive bundled service and then still pay for one of the other services (Flobikes or whomever) that holds the US rights to a different set of bikes races. I was also speaking about changes in the US sports landscape more broadly than just cycling. I’ve watched the NFL and college football forever on the broadcast networks with the only additional cost being the $16 I spent on rabbit ears 20 years ago. Many of those games will get sucked into subscription streaming services as well (in fact already happened with Amazon and Peacock this last season).I’m not opposed to the combining of channels and rights to different sports into one app, I am curious though if these companies will be able to pool their money together to bid on sports because this could become a power house app. One thing I notice here and elsewhere, like the soccer blogs is that people don’t like this because it may cost too much money monthly or yearly along with having a lot of sports they don’t want to watch.

That’s a good place to watch the cobbled classics anyways.The glaring omission is the Omloop on the 24th.
I have a feeling I will have to watch Belgian TV for that one.
The next Glaring omission is Strade Bianche on 3/2.The glaring omission is the Omloop on the 24th.
