Apple is selling MLS Season Pass to DirecTV.


And how many bars are actually going to pay for that

There are 1.65B people with an active Apple device which is capable of watching Apple TV, all new iPhones and iPads come with a free pass as well.



And how many people are going to watch MLS

Season pass is not free

You get basic Apple TV for free for like a year

I disagree with Taylor. Rule is tough and don’t like it but that’s 100% off side to me. Josef even had to move slightly to make sure he didn’t hit the ball.

You need to think of markets outside of the US.

How many people were watching MLS when it was relegated to ESPN 3?

you mean ESPN+?

A streaming service that is killing it

Also they were just the medium showing the matches being carried by local broadcast channels

Bru stop it, there isn’t a huge demand for this league in other countries esp with the European season about to start

Sky Sports was covering MLS and now poof. They had a good thing in the UK but it’s gone now.

Of course they do

But don’t be foolish if you think they are paying for season pass

They are illegal streaming the frick out of it and no one is going to enforce it to take it down there.

Wtf does that have to do with ESPN+

It’s not going anywhere

I’m not disagreeing with you on your points, I’m trying to argue why Apple and MLS did this deal.

What is 1% of 1.65B?

MLS signed with Apple TV bc no one else would offer them anything close to that type of money. All the other networks probably laughed them off the table. Apple paid way over value.

This deal is terrible for growing the game

I don’t blame MLS at all for taking it bc the league desperately needs the money. It needed a tv deal worth more than 7x annually than what it was getting to operate in the black. This deal still doesn’t offer that.

Great answer goal. And that’s a very loud “10%” home crowd.

It’s a legend. They can be there rooting for their team and also appreciating a legend

Apple is incredibly ambitious and they're maybe 8% of the way into this ten-year deal.

They needed a network to carry "all" of their games, was that happening before?

They need the cash and they needed a superstar to give the league a shot in the arm.
