It’s cheaper to buy the service directly on YouTube
Next month is the start of a new NFL season, and to make things easy for iOS users, YouTube is offering access to NFL Sunday Ticket via the Apple App Store. It’s a must-have service for football fans as it lets you watch every single game in the league, even if they’re out-of-market.
But there’s a problem: purchasing a subscription on an iPhone or iPad will cost you an eye-watering $679.99 for the annual plan.
These astronomical prices appear to have been initially discovered by John Ourand of the independent news site Puck. In his newsletter, he says that if you want to add NFL Redzone, you’ll have to pay $739.99 a year. People are understandably irate. You can find multiple reports and comments across the internet expressing their shock at the massive price tag.
One X user put it best by simply responding with “Yikes” to the announcement.
