Before ESPN+ the only reason I kept Dish was to watch sports. But now with ESPN+ I still have to keep Dish because I need my tv provider sign in to use it.

My local internet supplier Franklin Telephone wont work to run ESPN+

If they’d do away with that crap and make it where you could pay for the streaming app without needing TV or internet provider sign in they’d get more users imo

They get $10B per year by forcing the TV provider.

You are going to have to make a pretty significant argument to convince them otherwise.

For clarity, you can still access ESPN+ programming, just not content on the "regular" ESPN without a sign-in, correct?

If you're wanting to do away with Dish, can you get the cheapest streaming package that carries ESPN and use that sign-in instead, like maybe Sling Orange for $40/month? Or is your Dish package already cheaper than that?
