    ESPN Plus Streaming quality

    ESPN Plus streaming quality is total garbage for live events, at least in my case. I signed up for the free 7 day trial to catch the Crawford / Horn fight. I am cancelling ESPN Plus after the fight. The streaming for live events on ESPN Plus does not have that "live" look. I am watching a replay of the Crawford vs Postal fight on Plus and the quality is what I described. I watched the weigh in on ESPN Plus and the same poor quality. I then switched to YoutubeTV and watched the weigh in on ESPN News and the streaming quality was fantastic. Just a warning to those who plan to watch the Crawford vs Horn fight on ESPN Plus.You may be disappointed in the streaming quality but hey, the trial is free and it's the only way to see this fight.

    All streaming services suck. I have a high end tele and a high end connection and I can't watch Amazon Prime video at all. Blurry, not blurry, blurry, not blurry.

      In general I agree and have tried them all but Youtube TV stands out as by far the best. I have not had any buffering issues and the live events stream flawlessly.

          I have a top notch internet connection and up to a couple of days ago an old computer. The ESPN+ app had always lagged super bad for me. I just got a brand new desktop a couple of days ago so if it still lags I'm just going to cancel it.

            No problems on my end. ESPN+, Hulu Plus (how I watch Showtime and HBO fights), 4K Netflix, Amazon, NJPW World... all fine. Just a basic Comcast connection.

                  Youtube TV works flawlessly on both my television and computer. I live in Columbus Ohio which is a pretty big metro area so my internet speeds are just fine. ESPN Plus live events in my case look like crap. No "live" look,not smooth and kind of herky jerky.

                    It streams just like Netflix if use your browser. Anything else is garbage especially those Smart TV apps
