News ESPN+ price increase announced for Oct. 12

[KazDibiase]

ESPN today announced a price increase for its ESPN+ digital streaming platform, which takes effect Thurs., Oct. 12, 2023. The ESPN+ monthly subscription price will increase from $9.99 to $10.99, while the annual subscription price jumps from $99.99 to $109.99.

In addition, the ESPN+ pay-per-view (PPV) package will increase from $124.98 first year, $99.99 for each following year, to $134.98 first year, $109.99 for each following year. The existing UFC standalone price of $79.99 remains the same.


The Disney Trio Basic Bundle jumps from $12.99 per month to $14.99 per month. The Disney Trio Premium Bundle increases from $19.99 per month to $24.99 per month. Both bundles include ESPN+, Hulu, and Disney+ but the “Premium” option streams without ads.

UFC fans will need a subscription to ESPN+ to watch most live events; however, a UFC PPV card, like the upcoming UFC 294 extravaganza that airs on Oct. 21 from Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, will require an additional purchase of $79.99.

The ESPN+ annual plan gives subscribers access to NHL, Formula 1, LALIGA, Bundesliga, UFC, PFL, College Football, College Basketball, and more. It also includes studio series, the complete 30-for-30 Library, ESPN+ Originals, and exclusive insider articles.

Don't worry, this price increase, like inflation, is only transitory!

I wish our salaries get a nice 10% increase this year too

 

[Randy Fandy Fo Fanders]

Wtf. I can’t afford that. Now I have to figure out how to make more money with my mouth.

Don’t worry, it will be a soft landing.

UFC fans will need a subscription to an IPTV service, which is quite cheap, to watch live events and pay-per-views. They can also get 8000-16,000 additional channels and gosh darn near .every sporting event and PPVs

Got rid of it awhile ago. No LG app and it looks likes shit through the Xbox. Hockey is unwatchable. What a shit product

By 2025 I'll have to take out a loan to watch a PPV

 

[Pechan]

Oh no! This will definitely affect me!

 

[Barteh]

Do they still do this thing where they say the PPV price is 80 bucks but it's actually 90 to get the HD version?

That's what I love about these Russian links man. The streaming services kept getting more expensive, but the Russian links stay the same price......\

To each their own but for me hockey is the most watchable team sport there is. There's way less commercials and downtime in an NHL game compared to the other three big team sports. There's not nearly as much fighting as there used to be but it's still there as well as all the hitting.

Thankfully I canceled espn+ and haven’t ordered a ppv in over 10 months. I prefer the free method . Fuck these money grubbing whores

 

[TITS]

Time to unsubscribe. It's not worth it.

 

[ColombianFist]

Well lads, i guess it's time...

To sail the high seas. Yar har fiddle dee dee.

 

[ragreynolds]

Utter rip off.

The world can fuck off with all its prices and incessant demands for us to hand back the paltry sum of money it allocates to us in the first place.

Nope , fuck that , I was willing to pay , I’m an adult with a fucking job ,I paid for years but about 6 months ago I said fuck them and fuck that , they treat the paying customers like a piece of shit , why would the paying public have any loyalty to them at this point

I meant it was unwatchable on the app. It's super jerky and gives me a headache. There is something wrong with it on the Xbox Series X or PS5. Apparently it works better on the older generation consoles though. I have an LG tv and there is no LG app for it so I have to go through my Xbox.
