Fox One Streaming Service Launches

Fox (capitalization verbatim):

Fox Corporation today announced the official launch of FOX One, a bold new streaming service that brings together the full portfolio of FOX’s News, Sports and Entertainment branded content — all in one place, both live and on demand.

Available today across major web, mobile and connected TV platforms, FOX One is priced at $19.99/month with a 7-day free trial or $199.99/year, with the option to add-on B1G+ or bundle FOX Nation for an even greater value. Starting October 2, customers will also have the opportunity to bundle FOX One with ESPN DTC Unlimited for $39.99/month.

I just mentioned yesterday, re: MS NOW’s idiotic backronym, that Fox often styles its name in all caps without pretending the f-o-x letters stand for anything. Anyway, $20/month seems steep, but Fox carries a lot of sports.

Apple is promoting the launch prominently in the App Store (including Fox’s preferred all-caps styling), no doubt because Fox — unlike certain well-established streaming services — offers its subscriptions via IAP.
