ESPN+ will be provided to subscribers to Spectrum TV Select Plus subscribers. The highly anticipated ESPN streaming service will be made available to Spectrum TV Select subscribers when it launches. Nice! looks like this might have worked out decent for me as a spectrum customer! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note, I wonder how much my cable bill will go up? Ugh! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NYC market certainly does. MNF is ESPN's highest rated program. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What? said: So I'm old and confused... but I have Spectrum Select plus the sports bundle... does this mean I get ESPN+ streaming now?... which would be great for hockey I am wondering the same thing myself. I don’t know what it means by “select plus subscribers”. I can’t figure out what package that is. I went to the spectrum site and I don’t see a package called “select plus”. I have the TV select package and I added on the sports package and the premium movie channel package. I’m hoping that means I have select plus. I’ll try to remember to let you know once I figure it out. Feel free to send me a private message in a few days if I forget. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
