I did a free 7 day trial of apple just to watch a braves game lol. There was one series i liked, the silo. so i binge watched it. Other than that I thought the limited choices of shows (very little sports) sucked.

 

Apple is being smart. They're not overextending and taking huge losses like Disney did with Disney+. They're churning content at a lower rate and hoping to leverage other draws to fill in the blanks. If they get sports beyond soccer, they'll be set.

They (Apple) have to be pretty happy with MLS Season Pass. I haven’t heard of any actual streaming issues with the product, they also make certain games free every match day to keep those with an interest intrigued, and now that Messi is in the MLS, their numbers will only go up.

they only have around 1m season pass subs right now which to me seemed really low. otherwise I agree--with Messi the numbers could explode at any moment and that is the first in a long list of huge dominoes to fall.  

I love their shows, their MLS coverage is awesome, and their MLB games are amazing.  I would drop netflix before apple at this point (course i do get mls for free being a cltfc sth)

What would be wild is if Apple finally buys Disney. Those rumors have been around for forever but Iger’s recent comments might make the rumor carry more weight than it ever has before.

I would rate AppleTV MLB coverage for the Braves game I saw as “ok” but that’s in comparison to Ballys coverage. I’m not a soccer fan so not much interest in them. Also don’t like big corps owning everything.

Lucky Apple is only $6-7 per month, otherwise I'd drop it. I've watched a couple series and watching Jon Stewart's show now, couple movies here and there, but it's far from being a replacement for cable/satellite.

 

 

I only have Apple TV to watch Charlotte FC lose each week. I’ll prob be getting rid of that soon.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Been here since middle school right when it started around 2003 after the charlotte.com one. Living outside of Carolina it was tough to find good Panthers content, news or analysis. And no one to talk to about it. This place gave me a lot though I don’t often post. In the later days, I particularly Loved PhillyB’s write ups. They were fire. Too bad I go let it go. I appreciate the hell out of @MHS831 @TheSpecialJuan @Jackie Lee and others who have been posting great content and keeping this place worth coming back to. Particularly during the offseason. Appreciate y’all!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By kass · Posted

      Nice explanation, but I was just messing with you. Thought that would be obvious. I dont have the energy to keep on trolling. Last season I compared our situation with Bryce as a potential Alex Smith, but what we should be looking for is our version of Mahomes. Some people will read that as one sentence, to me that single sentence is equivalent to a half A4 explanationf of the teams pathway forward.

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      I dont know how much of his salary would come across and how much a trade would cost but I feel Kmet would be the sort of TE Canales and Morgan would like
