This probably isn't very representative of the general population since we're all diehard fans, but I'm curious what percentage of this group would result in new Apple+ subscriptions if a deal were finalized.

I had a free trial of Apple+ and cancelled it as soon as I finished Ted Lasso. I would totally get it again, and whatever extra Sports+ package they tack on if the Pac-12/10/8/6/4/Mountain/Coast/Tree/Forrest/Whatever was on there.

So I’m not really sure about the particulars, Is it part of the Apple + lineup, or a separate service to pay without getting Apple +, or a separate service to pay for that also requires purchase of Apple + to participate?
By the way, we have Apple + and so far every series we’ve watched has been quite good, even ones like Physical, which we had low expectations for but watched because a friend mentioned they enjoyed it.

I don't currently have a subscription but did for awhile. I watched the first two season of Ted Lasso and also watched Black Bird. Enjoyed both and will probably subscribe again at some point to watch the rest of Ted Lasso. They don't currently have anything that would convince me to keep a subscription going but the addition of the Pac-12 would have changed that.

So far we’ve watched 13 of the series. We got bogged down after one episode on a couple others, seems a lot of series on a lot of networks the first 2-3 episodes can be kind of a slog. The weakest of the bunch for us was The Last thing he told me, it was like a Hallmark channel program for a chunk of it. 5 or 6 were terrific- Lasso, Shrinking, See, Silo (wasn’t expecting much, finished it in 3 nights), Severance, Slow Horses and the Morning Show (more a favorite of my wife) have been our favorites so far. We need to check out the two we’re currently only an episode or two into. Haven’t seen Black Bird yet, will need to check it out.

If it's like the MLS deal, it's just access to those games. We get MLS games, but don't get Apple TV, if that's the same as Apple +. |

Easy question. I don't subscribe, but wherever the Beavs play, I will subscribe.

I enjoyed my free preview, but not enough to subscribe…yet. I would subscribe immediately to be able to watch all Pac 12 games at any time I choose. Broadcast doesn’t let me do that.

What kind of bozo would cancel their Apple subscription if OSU started being broadcast there? That makes ZERO sense.
Same question would be why someone would not subscribe to Apple if they didn't have it and OSU started being broadcast there. Guess some people still depend upon rabbit ear antenna TV.

I have the app on my Roku for MLS season pass. It's a pretty cool product!
I don't have Apple TV+, so no Ted Lasso for me.
Apple TV app and Apple TV+ are two distinct things, which some people get confused about.
