Probably not the right thread but made me wonder... What's the difference between ESPN3 and ESPN+? I know + is a paid service, but how do they determine what goes on there vs ESPN3?

ESPN+ is the new over-the-top service they started, essentially trying to make it a Netflix for sports. For now, only new or recent contracts can be put on it, so it's going to be mostly G5 or FCS conference home games as well as certain other sports leagues. Since the ACC is getting a network next year, we shouldn't be seeing any home games (or in-conference road games) behind the ESPN+ paywall.

Apparently our soccer team is tougher than ECU's football team...
1-1

Damn that was close
Thanks for the heads up. Not that I have the time, but I've got to check for soccer broadcasts more often. The VT kit is nice.
