You’d think that with everything available today, watching live sports would be a breeze. Yet, for countless fans, streaming their go-to teams has turned into a frustrating challenge filled with various apps and frequent outages.
Even when you’re hopping from one service to another searching for a specific game, only to discover it’s not included in your package, the experience can feel downright daunting.
This isn’t just a hassle for die-hard supporters trying to keep up with multiple teams. Honestly, it’s exhausting.
This is where DirectV steps in with its MySports genre pack—a solution that could really make things simpler.
Rather than going through a lot of hoops, this all-in-one package provides a well-rounded selection of key sports networks right at your fingertips. No more hassle.
What is the DirectV genre pack?
The Genre Pack is a new offering from DirectV that allows for more flexibility in selecting a live TV streaming service.
Currently, DirectV features five genre packs: MyKids, MyEntertainment, Miespañol, MyNews, and MySports. There are also smaller packs like MyHome Team, MySports Extra, and MyCinema that you can add to your base genre pack.
Subscribers can pick and choose from these genre packs according to what fits their viewing habits best.
If you find yourself glued to FS1 or ESPN more than anything else, the MySports genre pack is likely ideal for you.
How much does the genre pack for DirectV MySports cost?
The MySports genre pack from DirectV is priced at $69.99 a month, but there’s a deal right now—new customers can save $20 during the first two months, bringing it down to $59.99 per month. Plus, there’s a 5-day free trial available.
This subscription includes full access to ESPN Unlimited, normally priced at $29.99 each month.
