Apple has dropped the price of the 2024 Major League Soccer season pass from $14.99 to free for Apple TV+ subscribers, or $9.99 for non-subscribers.

As the 2024 season winds down, Apple is offering both the remaining matches as well as interviews, previous games, and other features for the remainder of the season. There has been a lot of focus on Lionel Messi's debut US season, along with other stars like Riqui Puig.

Apple previously made a surprise offer to make Messi's first MLS playoff debut free on Apple TV+ for both subscribers and non-subscribers on October 25. Messi plays for Inter Miami CF, and his presence is said to have doubled subscriptions to the MLS Season Pass compared to the previous year.

The usual price of the MLS season pass is $14.99 per month. It was reduced to $9.99 per month in early September for non-subscribers, in an effort to lure more sports fans to the service. The current offer will automatically renew at full price when the 2025 season kicks off, unless cancelled.

Apple TV+ is available on a wide variety of platforms, including most recent-model smart TVs, along with PlayStation and Xbox, as well as Roku and the Amazon Fire Stick. It's also accessible on the web.

The 2024 season still has games playing from November 1 through November 3. The last games in Round One of the playoffs are being played on November 8 to November 10.

Following this, the conference semi-finals will be played on November 23-24, followed by the conference finals on November 30 and December 1. The MLS Cup game will be played on December 7.

    The final matches of the season will be Columbus vs New York, and Seattle vs Houston.

    Correction - The season isn’t over Nov 10th. That’s the end of round 1 of the playoffs which just started last week. Here is the remaining schedule :

    Round One     Oct 25 - Nov 10
    Conference Semi-finals   Nov 23 - Nov 24
    Conference Finals    Nov 30 - Dec 1
    MLS Cup    Dec 7

    I’d love it if users could hide anything sports related from the interface. It takes up so much space considering it’s not something I’d ever select. Imagine if an entire section of your UI—at the very top—was packed with wedding-related videos, all the time, forever. It’s nonsensical. A simple toggle-to-hide button would be an easy fix.

    I had to read your post a couple of times to understand that you are talking about a toggle on your Apple TV box rather than this site. I’m slow like that sometimes. :)

    The problem with your idea, which I would activate if such a toggle existed, is that others would then demand “no foreign,” “no artsy crap” and “no current events” toggles. Never underestimate the tendency of the stupid to resist potential enlightenment.
