This is included in my Direct TV subscription, however no matter what options you choose, ESPN includes ads with no way to pay to get away from them. Crazy.
Got a tip for us?

Maybe, but they pilfer cable and any company that they can bully with their carriage fees. If you could opt out of their programming and not pay, cable would be significantly cheaper.
No thanks. That's garbage.
Btw F Disney!

Check the pricing on cable again. Not the intro price and make sure to check all the equipment charges and fees.
You'll quickly see its no bargain.
Is this supposed to be a good price? Streamers have lost their goddamn minds
Funny people call this a scheme like its some new thing when thats exactly what cable and satellite TV did for years.
I remember back when there was an option to pay with an In App Purchase making it easy for folks to track all their subscriptions in one place. Some folks would call that customer choice.
When companies have a choice to set up their own app stores, I’m sure they’ll also keep their apps on the App Store to ensure customers have a choice, right?

I used to have this plan for $29.99/mo and it was ad-free for that price. I guess this is a recent change.
I swapped it for the HBO bundle essentially removing ESPN, it’s the same price, ad-free but the only caveat is Max doesn’t stream in 4K which is quite sad. I did this a few months ago.

Disney's pricing strategy seems disconnected from reality.
Is this an advertisement or a legit post.
Disney recently introduced a new promotion on its streaming service, offering a bundle of Disney+ (with ads), Hulu (with ads), and ESPN Unlimited for $29.99 per month for your first year. This offer represents a savings of over 39 percent on the bundle, and after your first year ends it will return to the then-current monthly price unless cancelled.

To get the deal, head to the promotion landing page on the Disney+ website and click on the Disney+/Hulu/ESPN Unlimited bundle option. This offer is valid only for new and eligible returning subscribers.
Additionally, you can save on the Disney+/Hulu/ESPN Unlimited Premium Bundle, which is the ad-free option for Disney+ and Hulu. This is priced at $38.99 per month for your first year, down from $44.99 per month.

Anyone else tired of being told to bend over and grab their ankles for this really great ad infested deal?
Years ago when we had three properties, we had DISH. To get the one program we wanted it was $300/month at each place. So when two the properties were sold, Dish was cancelled everywhere. had to jump through hoops get the gear off the roofs, but we did.
Local cable now about $140 for Gbit ethernet access and no television. Streaming services are working very hard to price themselves out of our home.

Exactly. It's almost like they shouldn't have bowed down to authoritarianism so quickly.
I got a sweetheart deal last December. Hulu and Disney+ for $1.99 a month. You better believe I’m canceling as soon as the year is up. It’s all too expensive. Prime Video though, they are getting to be the worst. The length of the ad breaks is just obnoxious and it’s gotten to the point where I just stopped watching whatever I was watching because the ad brakes were so long. A reckoning is coming.

Mine was renewing at $26.99/mo before I canceled a few weeks ago. When I sign in they’re offering this “great” promotional price if I resubscribe. Maybe the ESPN subscription includes more than ESPN+ did?
And that's why I don't watch broadcast TV. Ads ruin everything.
I'll pass.
I found it's much better to subscribe to a service and binge watch a series before dropping the service.

Are you sure it wasn’t ESPN+ instead of ESPN Unlimited? Not saying the current price is warranted. But no way did they have Disney+/Hulu/ESPN unlimited for $15 per month. More likely you are getting confused by ESPN+, which isn’t the same as ESPN Unlimited.
ESPN+ doesn’t carry any major sporting event (i.e. anything that’s expected to have higher viewership) and so is much cheaper. For example, they’ll typically have grand slam tennis matches only till the third round. But even there, if a match is expected to have viewership they’ll remove it from airing on the service. For example, when it was expected that a 3rd round match for Serena Williams might be the last in her career they removed it from airing on ESPN+ even though it was technically supposed to be aired. Such shenanigans is what made us cancel ESPN+.
