So now I need an nchc sub for hockey, espn plus sub for football, and now I also need a summit league streaming package for basketball. Oh and make sure you have a serviCe that Carrie’s CBS sports network for select games and tournament. The Summit League streaming package is midco sports plus which is airing 9 of UND's 11 FB games this year. You don't need ESPN+ to watch fb for the rest of the season. Can cancel your membership if you have one. 1 Quote

It seems like everybody uses ESPN/ESPN+ which made it nice to have that one subscription and be able to watch the majority of all college basketball games. Now need a second subscription... Quote

You will probably need ESPN+ to watch the non-conference away games however. Quote

ESPN doesn't pay, they don't provide any ancillary programming, and they don't care to broadcast anything on linear TV other than the conf championship games. They treat leagues such as the Summit like crap. Screw them. 1 Quote

Now Disney is trying to on load ESPN because it is bleeding cashflow. Disney has no offers for ESPN. They are in a death spiral unless someone buys them and turns it around. Quote

Yeah I guess I haven't had these issues that you unfortunately had. I was always happy with the ESPN+ subscription and what I got from it. Quote

I guess I should have clarified when I said "majority of games". I am talking about ALL of college basketball. Not Summit League only. You could watch High School, D3, NAIA, D2, Mid-Major, Big 12, ACC. You could watch it all. As a basketball fan, that was great to have and the reason why I'll keep ESPN+. I'm sure Midco will cover the Summit as a whole exceptionally well. As a viewer, it just stinks to have to get another streaming service for just one conference. Quote

nodakvindy Posted October 27, 2023 Posted October 27, 2023 The key will be getting synergy between Midco and NCHC.tv, getting that all under one umbrella would be nice. Hopefully that is coming. It would also be nice if CBS Sports games were available on Paramount Plus. Not sure why they aren't. Some are available on the CBS Sports HQ app on Roku, but it's a total crapshoot on which ones.
