Tech giant Apple and Major League Soccer have struck a 10-year broadcast deal that makes every MLS match available to stream live on the Apple TV app from 2023 through 2032. The contract makes Apple TV the exclusive home for live MLS coverage, which comes without local blackouts or restrictions. The MLS streaming service through which subscribers can enjoy the games is available internationally and includes weekly recap shows, analysis, match replays, highlights, and more. The service, which is available exclusively through the Apple TV app and included as part of the league’s full-season ticket packages, also provides on-demand MLS content, along with behind-the-scenes programming. While a limited number of MLS matches may be aired for free, the majority are expected to be streamed every season at no extra cost to Apple TV+ subscribers. Commentary is said to be delivered in English and Spanish languages, whereas matches involving Canadian clubs may have French-language play-by-play commentary. At the time the Apple-MLS partnership was first announced, the deal was reported to be worth a minimum of $250 million annually.
