How you figure that to happen? YTTV is a major ESPN sponsor.

I'm saying a lot of the reason why people have "package deals" (cable, satellite, YouTube TV, Hulu+, etc) is because they can't get ESPN any other way. Most other channels on those packages are available through streaming services.

Once ESPN is not exclusively tied to "package deals", I bet people will cancel their subscriptions in favor of getting a few streaming services for their favorite channels (since ESPN is now "a la carte").

Edit: I probably responded to the wrong post originally...sorry

How is that any different than any other network. I don't see ESPN networks leaving YTTV or any other streaming service.

ESPN announced a new streaming option this fall. Based on what I can tell it includes network stations (espn, espn2, sec network, abc) along with espn+.

If so, I’m likely going that option instead of YouTubetv

ESPN Standalone service is $29.99/mo. Sheesh.

Still haven’t heard anything on the cell carrier deals. Hoping they sweeten the deal.

This makes me VERY happy!! I'm to cheap to pay $75 plus for YouTube TV or any of the others, I just wanna be able to watch my beloved Vols and as much college sports as possible. I'll do $30 a month!

ESPN will launch its new previously announced direct-to-consumer streaming service on Thursday, August 21, bringing the full suite of ESPN networks and services – within an enhanced ESPN App with new, personalized features and functionality – directly to fans.

Timed for a marquee stretch of live sports programming across ESPN platforms, the launch of ESPN DTC coincides with the start of the college football and NFL seasons, US Open tennis, international soccer, women’s college soccer, volleyball, field hockey, and more – with the start of the WNBA playoffs, PLL playoffs, and NBA and NHL seasons, as well as UFC and WWE events just around the corner.

Designed to give fans more choice and flexibility, ESPN DTC will offer two plans, including an unlimited plan for $29.99/month that gives fans access to all of ESPN’s linear networks – ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, SECN, ACCN, ESPNEWS, ESPN Deportes – in addition to ESPN on ABC, ESPN+, ESPN3, SECN+, and ACCNX, covering 47,000 live events each year, on-demand replays, studio shows, original programming, and more. Bundling opportunities for the ESPN unlimited plan with Disney+ and Hulu include a special offer at launch for $29.99/month for the first 12 months.

All subscribers to ESPN’s unlimited plan – either through ESPN DTC or a traditional Pay TV provider – will have live and on-demand access to all of ESPN’s leading studio shows – including SportsCenter, Get Up, First Take, NFL Live, The Pat McAfee Show, Pardon the Interruption, College GameDay, NBA Today, Inside the NBA, The Rich Eisen Show, and more – plus a robust, on-demand library featuring 30 for 30 films, ESPN Originals, replays, and more.

The enhanced ESPN App will introduce a more personalized, dynamic viewing experience for fans. New features will include updated multiview options, integrated game stats, betting information, fantasy sports and commerce, along with a personalized SC For You.

Thanks for this... I will probably subscribe and dump yttv.... and my $0.99/month hulu. My plex server is hooked up to an OTA antenna so I am good for most of all the other stuff.
