ESPN Boosted by Disney+ Streaming App

ESPN fans, get ready for some exciting news! Starting this week, you’ll find a special section just for ESPN content on Disney+. That’s right, the sports media giant is now a part of the larger Disney streaming family, joining popular brands like Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars.

With Disney+ boasting a massive 122.7 million global subscribers, this move brings ESPN content to even more viewers. While ESPN+ had 25.6 million subscribers, this new integration means that many non-sports fans will also have access to ESPN’s content. This is a big opportunity for ESPN and Disney to reach a wider audience and grow their streaming presence.

For subscribers to the Disney streaming bundle, which includes Disney+, ESPN+, and Hulu, there’s a ton of ESPN+ content to enjoy. But even if you’re only subscribed to Disney+, you’ll still get a taste of ESPN content, like sports-related animated shows. This setup aims to spark interest in sports for viewers who might not usually tune into ESPN.

This move comes ahead of the upcoming release of ESPN’s direct-to-consumer offering, Flagship. The deep integration with Disney+ is likely to provide valuable data on user preferences, especially for those who aren’t hardcore sports fans. It seems like ESPN is gearing up for some exciting developments in the world of streaming, so stay tuned for more updates!
