Is ESPN+ Worth It?
I don't subscribe to ESPN+ but would like to watch tonight's SDSU-UNI game.

Do any of my fellow Dukes subscribe? Is it worth $5.99/month? Thinking about paying the per month charge for the next three months in order to watch MVC games among others to see how our competition to Frisco looks.

It’s worth it to me for Peyton Manning’s show. He’s funny and has interesting guests.

I would love to pay for it if we could get Dukes games on there. If you want it for just the game tonight and feel like forking over the fee, there should be some streaming links out there. I don’t know the rules for posting but I can PM later once they start showing up.

Reddit always has a stream or two if you don’t mind getting through the pop ups.

I like ESPN+ but i also use it to watch other leagues and events - FCS ball in other leagues is a plus which helps me keep tabs across the country. I’d get it but only if you use it for the other leagues is shows.

For people who want to watch FCS football without ESPN+, tomorrow’s Jackson State game is on ESPN3. The band is lit & Deion’s team is stacked with talent.

RE: Is ESPN+ Worth It?
Thanks for the quick feedback Dukesfan71, Anders, Knit35, Hyper and Wear Purple. I'm going to pay the $5.99/month subscription.

Like many of you I wish the CAA had gone this route instead of going with Flo.

RE: Is ESPN+ Worth It?
It's only worth it if you want to watch almost all FCS football nationally, you care about G5 FBS games or you watch a ton of D1 basketball. A lot of stuff that isn't being put on the main tv channels just gets thrown on ESPN+.

Now if you don't care about any of that. No. Save your $6 a month.

I watch some Euro soccer on ESPN+ as well as MLS. I have a family connection to the SoCon so I catch some games there.

the ESPN+ also gives you access to additional content on the ESPN website. If you like analysis, it's worth it for that alone.

I get it, and share my subscription with DJ.

I think it's worth it.

ESPN - I think its fair.
Flo kinda makes me feel ripped off. Plus the money going to CBS to pay for televised games is annoying. It's one thing for school or league to pay for televising games, but to use our subscription dollars on one platform to pay for another on another platform.

Once again which school's fans are footing more of the bill than any other?????

I understand the issues with news papers, etc

I get digital only for the post. In the past I would just clear my cookies and look for free.

I would get DNR, but it seems like the digital subscription was a little bit high priced. I still might subscribe to them in the future as well. I think the DNR gives more coverage to James Madison than the Washington posts gives to the Washington pro-sports teams. It seem like the DNR has 10-20 articles a week on the Dukes.
