Starting to get into watching UFC and really the only option to watch it regularly is ESPN+. But besides the UFC content, is paying $5.99 or whatever it is worth it? Anyone have it and like it? It seems more and more articles at espn are now espn+ articles, but still I don't know if im so pulled in by their headlines from the article I am willing to pay $5.99 for it.

I feel like it is. You can also bundle it with hulu and Disney for 12
 
I got it for free once redeeming some miles for ESPN the magazine or something like that. it was ok, they have put a LOT more behind the paywall now.


The thing I hated was that you couldn't cancel without actually calling in and sitting on hold. This was about 5-8 years ago, still within the time everyone was online. They just wanted to make it as difficult as possible to end auto renew and cancel.

Just what I was about to suggest. Makes the ESPN+ virtually free.

You can renew and cancel through Google play

Through what? I legitimately don't use google stuff. Is that like the apple store, where you can control your subscriptions there?
 
I think I have Disney+ now, I wonder if I can just upgrade or something the Disney with adding ESPN+ as I'd also get Hulu. The problem with all this paying for streaming apps is, you forget which ones you have, how much they are and before you know it you're paying for like 10 different streaming apps.
 
And now that ESPN+ and Hulu will be airing hockey games it adds more sports content to it.

Looking at what airs on ESPN+ it was UFC and then like Cricket, random Soccer leagues, and other random sports.
 
I’m sure it’s worth it for some who want certain things it offers.

Until they start showing MLB and NFL games with home team broadcasters I’m not interested in breaking my rule where I basically give them nothing from my eye balls or ears.

I had the same thing. That wasn't even much of a magazine, it was the classifieds with some sports articles mixed in.
 
Worth it if you're gonna bundle with Hulu and Disney.

Otherwise probably not by itself.
 
i currenrly have espn+,
and cancelled/renewed a couple times -
never had any issue with cancellation -
just did it thru the website -
 
I love it for Bundesliga soccer and college basketball. I'd say it's worth it.

Would really like MLB games on it. That would probably help push me to getting it.
