Why ESPN+ is a must-have for all soccer (and sports) fans

When the pandemic set in it took away all the joys of visiting stadiums and cheering on your favorite teams with it. But, just because we’re far apart from each other, doesn’t mean we can’t still rejoice and support our favorite soccer teams. If you’ve been looking for an affordable way to watch every league from Serie A to the Bundesliga no matter where you are, the ESPN+ subscription will come in handy.

ESPN+ is a streaming subscription service that provides sports fanatics with live video feeds, sports documentaries, tons of in-depth exclusive articles, and more. If you’re the type of person who wants to keep a close eye on all of your favorite teams — even if they’re across the pond — the ESPN+ subscription is for you. It’s not even just geared toward soccer fans (although if you’re a die-hard soccer fan, you can stream every league from the Bundesliga to MLS), the subscription also allows you to follow the MLB, UFC, NHL, and more.

You can sign on to ESPN+ and start streaming all your favorite sports content for just $6 a month. If you choose to buy a yearly subscription that amounts to only $60 annually — a steal for all it offers. If you are going to use ESPN+ on a daily basis, consider going with the yearly plan, it’ll save you about $22 from the month-to-month plan. You can also subscribe to the Disney Bundle and get Disney+, ESPN+, and Hulu all rolled into one for just $13 a month. If you do the math you’re saving around $6 per month with this bundle.

You can stream ESPN+ straight from the ESPN app if you already have it installed. The ESPN app is available everywhere so you can get it on your phone, tablet, and even on your smart TV. It also works with Google Chromecast and Apple TV, so no matter what smart home platform you use, you’ll be able to access this service. You can also stream on three devices simultaneously with a single account — kickoff is now wherever you are!

The Beats Pill is back, baby!
A pair of Beats Pill speakers.

In what's been one of the worst-kept secrets of the year -- mostly because subtly putting a product into the hands of some of the biggest stars on the planet is no way to keep a secret -- the Beats Pill has returned. Just a couple of years after Apple and Beats unceremoniously killed off the stylish Bluetooth speaker, a new one has arrived.

Available for preorder today in either black, red, or gold, the $150 speaker (and speakerphone, for that matter) rounds out a 2024 release cycle for beats that includes the Solo Buds and Solo 4 headphones, and comes nearly a year after the Beats Studio Pro.

Ifi’s latest DAC is the first to add lossless Bluetooth audio
Ifi Audio Zen Blue 3 DAC (front).

Ifi Audio's new Zen Blue 3 wireless digital-to-analog converter (DAC) will officially be available to buy for $299 on July 9. When it is, it will be the first device of its kind to support a wide variety of Bluetooth codecs, including Qualcomm's aptX Lossless, the only codec that claims to deliver bit-perfect CD quality audio over a Bluetooth connection.

Admittedly, there are very few devices on the market that can receive aptX Lossless (and fewer that can transmit it), so it's a good thing that the Zen Blue 3 also works with the more widely supported aptX Adaptive, LDAC, and LDHC/HWA codecs (all of which are hi-res audio-capable), plus the three most common codecs: AAC, SBC, and aptX.

If I were to build an outdoor stereo in 2024, I'd do it with a pair of portable Beats Pills instead of Sonos speakers. Phil Nickinson / Digital Trends

In 2017, after more than a decade in our home, my wife and I added a pool. With it came a covered deck, making what basically was a new outdoor room. Not uncommon at all in Florida, but new to us.
