I must be thte only one who like Paramount+

Honestly would rather have the Warner Bros content over there than on Netflix.

It has really strange bugs like with an hour left of a Champions League match it thought it had reached the end credits of the show and tried to automatically start showing something else. Was confusing figuring out how to tell it I wanted to really watch the "end credits" which was the last hour of the soccer contest.

That's interesting as the Champions League is the most compelling thing for me to consider P+ subscription. Unfortunately for P+ it just hasn't been compelling enough. I feel for the Peacock subscription to watch EPL, but even with that subscription there are matches only on USA and maybe also on Telemundo. I can only imagine P+ doing similar, and I'm just not here for it

So far all the Champions League games have been available on the app. Serie A is a nice bonus, with a few other competitions as well.

EPL requiring both Peacock and a cable subscription to watch all of the games is extremely annoying. But I do it anyway.

All of those combined let me watch all the Arsenal games except FA and Carabao Cup.

I believe a combined Hulu+Disney+ESPN gets those, maybe. I know I've seen something via ESPN, but those would be the last 2 I pay attention

They do not. ESPN has La Liga and very little else for soccer.
