This won’t satisfy every craving a sports fan has: Notable omissions, for now, are Disney’s ESPN, which dominates the live sports market, as well as Time Warner’s Turner, which has rights to some pro basketball and baseball games, as well as the March Madness college basketball tournament. It also features pro basketball’s NBA TV channel, as well as a modest selection of general interest programming including A&E, Bravo and the Weather Channel. It will give customers access to a range of sports channels, including national and regional channels run by Fox and NBCUniversal, as well as Fox and NBC’s broadcast networks, which have big-ticket sports events. That price will likely creep up above $40 a month, according to people familiar with the company. Want to buy a pay TV service that’s focused on live sports? Now you can do that, too: FuboTV, a startup that launched with a focus on streaming soccer games, is rolling out a subscription service that includes a range of live sports, including pro football, basketball and baseball games.įubo, which has already signed up close to 100,000 subscribers for a $10-a-month service, says a beta version of its new service will launch in the next few weeks, at a starting price of $35 a month.
