ESPN Unlimited?

IndianaVol · 2025-08-23T09:42:14-0400

Anyone know anything about ESPN Unlimited?
Like does it stream ALL of ESPNs content...even the main channel live?
Meaning would it live stream the game that us being broadcast?

Just wondering if it's worth the 30 a month and how many Vols games would end up on there this season...

I plan on trying a new way to get games for free this year. Tired of paying YouTube TV $82.99 just for football.

I side loaded an app called Sports Fire on my Amazon Fire Stick. It shows it has all the channels (ESPN, SEC, ABC).

I tested it last night and was able to watch the Falcons preseason game.

I believe it is supposed to eventually have everything ESPN broadcasts. But if you have some sort of cable provider, you don’t have to pay extra for it. At least that is going to be the end result, allegedly.

My apartment forces the residents to use Spectrum which isn’t ideal. But I have a friends YouTube TV login for

️ and there’s NBA league pass too.

I have ESPN+ but with unlimited that’s an entirely different plan. Plus, now MLB and ESPN are going to be where 5 teams will be exclusively broadcast.

The UT opener is being carried by ABC. Does the ESPN $30 app cover all the networks who carry college football?

Yes supposedly I have all that with my TV Select plan - but I also have subscriptions for them. I obviously am paying twice for somethings. It is all so confusing!

Some of them would be with ads but you can pay a little more for no adds. I really need to compare all this to save some money.

This might be a better deal than I have depending on how many games are on Fox and CBS. I have no idea.

I have the Sling basic plus orange package with sports plus. That seems to give me all college football games at $56 per month. I really don't watch anything other than football.

I will be watching closely to see how many games are streamed live on YouTube for free. If its like baseball and basketball where all games are shown I will cancel my plan.

IndianaVol · 2025-08-23T12:17:24-0400

Sounds like since my Vols likely will not be on either CBS or Fox and on ESPN or SEC network, this may be a decent investment for the 4 months of football season.

So far its 100% as todays game is being streamed live on YouTube.

tomq_123 · 2025-08-23T14:30:59-0400

FYI, you can create a new Gmail account and use that to sign up for YouTube TV. This can get you first 3 months for $49.99/month.

If my free option (Sports Fire app on fire stick) doesn’t work, this is what I’m doing as backup.

It means you will be able to get All my Children and General Hospital on your sports app and Entertainment tonight for in depth sportscalling-players whose socks aren't up to their top length etc.

It’s still fairly new, but I’m pretty sure you have to have TV select plus with spectrum

ABC games should be included. But none of the the other broadcasts networks (NBC/CBS/FOX)

JacketVol · 2025-08-23T16:52:38-0400

It has multi view though it is pre selected by the network and you can't customize it. It is all included in my Fubo sub and went in and I like it.

StuckInBamaVol · 2025-08-23T17:48:18-0400

I can’t find a reason not to go with YoutubeTV. It’s solid.

I wasn't even aware of ESPN Unlimited. Thanks for bringing it up!

Right now, I'm looking at just doing the "day passes" on Sling for $5 on Saturdays (the full month sub is $46).

VolPack22 · 2025-08-23T19:15:15-0400

ESPN deal is perfect for me. The only live television I watch is sports and most of it is SEC so all of it will be available on that. Also I will always want to have Disney+ and Hulu so the bundle is a no brainer for me. I already do HBO Max and Prime so I don’t really need live television other than sports
