"We believe that a sports-only streaming app is a tough model and that sports integrated in a general entertainment service a la Peacock or Paramount Plus makes more sense."
This is a tough sell, to be honest, even if there's an obvious motivation.
After a bunch of recent rights acquisitions involving ESPN+, parent corporation Disney is now raising the price for that service.
