ESPN is among the top sports streaming services in 2022. So it’s not surprising that you want to install it and watch it on your Smart TV. Especially since you can watch it on multiple devices and not miss your favorite sports events.

AirPlay is the ability to duplicate the screen display of a Mac or iOS gadget onto your TV that supports this feature. Although mirroring can be used for streaming video and audio files, some content may be restricted due to the risk of copyright infringement (you should always keep this in mind).

How much will you pay for the ESPN Plus subscription?
I find ESPN’s streaming service subscription to be quite affordable. After all, for only $6.99 a month or $69.99 a year you get unlimited viewing of almost any sports-related content. In addition, as mentioned earlier, you can watch ESPN on multiple devices at once, and there is no limit to the number of such devices.
You also have the option to buy the Disney Bundle with Disney Plus, ESPN Plus, and Hulu (but with ads) at the same time for only $13.99 a month, which sounds like a great deal to me.
