ESPN is the heavyweight in the sports broadcasting world in the US, so it’s no surprise the amount of content available on ESPN+ dwarfs what MLS has to offer. Just with soccer programming alone, the quantity and quality ESPN has is staggering. For instance, in any given month, ESPN+ has more than 2,000 live events.

And with the additional documentaries (plus movies and shows with the Disney bundle), the value is pretty hard to beat.

Paramount+ isn’t quite ESPN+, but the CBS catalog of soccer broadcast rights is growing larger all the time. They, of course, are the English language home of the pinnacle of club soccer, the Champions League. Every UEFA club match can be found on Paramount+.

Plus there’s Serie A, the NWSL and WSL, and the top South American leagues. And on top of the sports, you get a large catalog of TV shows and movies. At $4.99/month, it’s a really substantial value even if you never watch a movie or show.

Recently the CBS Sports Golazo Network, included in the Paramount+ interface (but also free on Pluto TV and the CBS Sports App), has shown select US Open Cup games as well as daily shows such as Morning Footy and Box 2 Box.

Outside of soccer, Paramount+’s catalog of movie and shows is very impressive, with a wide variety of content to choose from, both new and old.

Our Pick:

Includes: Champions League, Europa League, Serie A, NWSL, Argentine Primera, Brasileirão, Scottish Premiership, Women's Super League, & More
