Movies and series, that doesn’t seem to be enough for a decent streaming service anymore. For example, Amazon Prime Video has broadcast the Champions League since the 2021/22 season and some Bundesliga games in 2020. Now Apple is getting into the live sports business with Apple TV Plus. This was announced by CEO Tim Cook at the “Peek Performance” event on March 8, 2022.

Major League Baseball bei Apple TV Plus
Accordingly, the US group broadcasts two Major League Baseball games live and exclusively on its streaming service every Friday. The two games are each offered as part of a “doubles header”. There will be live shows before and after the games. With “MLB Big Innig” the company is introducing a daily live show with highlights from the league.
The games will be viewable on all devices running Apple TV Plus with no local broadcast restrictions. This includes not only the iPhone and the iPad, but also numerous smart TVs from manufacturers such as Samsung or LG. A subscription to the streaming service is available for EUR 4.99 per month. There are no additional costs for live sports. The crux: Initially, Apple only shows baseball games in the USA, Canada, Australia, Brazil, Great Britain, Japan, Mexico, Puerto Rico and South Korea. Other countries are to follow at a later date.
