Apple's Football Masterplan, Explained
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 май 2024
- Dive into how Apple, the tech giant that turned your grandma into a tablet user, is now aiming to shake up the sports world. From reinventing our desks with sleek computers to revolutionizing the way we ignore people with earbuds in, Apple's next playground is sports. They're not just dipping their toes; they're doing a cannonball into the sports broadcasting pool with deals like the $2.5 billion splash for MLS rights.
Apple's plan? To wrap sports in that classic Apple magic, making everything from watching a game to paying for your halftime snacks a part of their ecosystem. With iPhone sales hitting a bit of a snooze button, Tim Cook and the gang are looking to score big by bringing the thrill of live sports right into the Apple universe. It's all about pulling you deeper into their world - where leaving is tougher than quitting a gym membership in January.

I don't think I heard anything about Apple paying for Messi in this video.
i think his meaning Messi going to inter Miami with their rights for MLS
They probably had the video prepared for a while and couldn't believe their luck when Messi did actually go to Inter Miami with Apple funding the deal.
@@claycopter this is exactly what happened :)
I guess it's implicit in the mention of the $2.5 billion media rights deal with MLS, which via revenue sharing, goes to Inter Miami. Thus Apple 'paid' for Messi, since a good chunk of Inter Miami's spending money comes from Apple. What's not mentioned is that Apple is also directly paying Messi by giving him royalties for MLS season pass and the documentary they're releasing on him.
Great video, with clickbaity title. But, the truth is that money came to the Premier League first, then the quality improved after. Not before.
I was honestly surprised to learn just how involved apple was in MLS.
The Moment Apple made the Announcement, I knew that they'll bring in Innovation for the League. Just the No Blackout Model alone is great. For example, in 2022 I searched a Dodgy Stream to watch my Club while in London. In 2023, I just logged into my Apple TV while in London.
I had no idea that Apple bought the rights to the MLS as I mainly only watch European football.
@@AKUNJIG I watched the very first MLS game live on TV. DC United at San Jose Clash. Followed the league religiously. It’s mind boggling What’s happened since then. The fact that a 5’8 guy can be the best player in the world is huge for kids in this country.
It’s actually better to be on the smaller side of size in soccer. Since the ball is mostly on the ground most of the best players are not huge.
@@optimusblack3 it’s better for a winger like messi, not for defensive players
The research, the comprehensiveness, the pacing of the video, the graphics, the aesthetics, the delivery and the overall feel of your videos is just something to be amazed about.
Thank you for your videos.
Thank you Ozone!
Surely, that's why they put Messi on the titlebut don't even mention it a single time in the whole video 👍
And the voice. The voice is perfect. Thank you @athleticinterest
My generation don’t look at the news we make fun of the news
Yes. Also the narration. To our dear narrator, please don't switch to a different channel. @AthleticInterest
Watched every single video of this channel under one day of release
My loyalty is towards athletic interest
Messi can make real football bigger in the USA!
Nope.
As someone who lives in the US, Don't think that'll happen anytime soon
@@HAL--gb6uf It will happen, messi is the biggest sports star and influencer in the world.
@@HAL--gb6uf with the upcoming world cup in the US and a USMNT team with potential to go further than the round of 16 and the best footballer player of all time still half in his prime arriving it could spark something. If the USMNT is able to progress past, the round of 16, Pulisic, Balogun, Adams and McKennie will become nationwide know, if they make it to the semis football might break into the top 3 sports in the US.
LMAO He don't even speak English what makes you think he can influence the US.
the amount of quality that there is in this videos is crazy, I mean honestly this channel is mad underrated (pls also keep making f1 videos, I love them).
Hopefully with this, the US will begin to adapt some ideas from the rest of the world and grow the sport. Interested in seeing how apple takes advantage of messi coming to the mls
In the US its like a tournament instead of a competition. Also that teams can't relegate and make promotion is bad to establish a base line of quality and growth.
They need to get rid of that system and play in a league with 20 teams that all play twice to each other.
I don't know if thats doable with the distance to travel.
I also believe that the Canadian teams should play in the Canadian competition that way they would help the rest of their country to make it more competitive.
They'll take advantage likely by continuing their war against all competitors and other companies. Scary monopoly indeed.
@@diazclemenza3591 I don’t think it’s viable for Canada to have their own competition since too many people are condensed into huge centers like Hamilton, Montreal, Ottawa, etc., with the rest being small cities or towns.
@@heijimikata7181 they already have a competition but teams like Toronto Vancouver and Montreal play in the MLS while they could play in the canadian competition
Been waiting to see if you would have a video on this.
I hope Apple doesn't do this for two reasons, one it will be expensive in terms of season subscriptions as they will want exclusive rights or something similar to that.Second, they will force ecosystem thing to everyone by not giving good experience for everyone outside the ecosystem.
You can’t hope they already have the rights.
Existing streaming services are already expensive (35€ and more per month). It can't get much more expensive than that. Amazon has fairly reasonable prices for football matches and if Apple benefits from the devices they sell they will likely subsidize the subscription price to be lower than existing streaming services (sky/dazn/etc.)
@@danbo967 True the prices are already expensive. I just don't think Apple will subsidize the price for those with hardware, we know Apple loves money more so if they got almost exclusive rights, they will charge premium
@@KnightMaf I mean what would be the point of offering a football stream that is more expensive than the competition ? Apple has to offer their product either at the same price as the competition whilst offering a better experience or offer it cheaper to gain customers. Apple TV+ for example is cheaper than Disney+ and Netflix.
@Knight Maf ----- They already do Apple TV+ and Apple Music on non-ecosystem devices like Androids and Samsung TVs. They realize they're not going to get 100% of any market. There is no upside for Apple by offering a poor experience to anyone who is paying for a subscription.
Your background soundtrack is just too cool! I makes watching your videos all the enjoyable🤙
@TheAthleticInterest. Please do a video on Saudi Arabia Football Transfers from Europe and the likely net effect in Saudi & Europe in the long run. Thanks for the good work so far!
Excellent request.. @Athletic Interest has already done something on "Sportswashing".. this could look beyond sportswashing.
@@ankurm4100 they want strengthen their world cup Bid coming in 2030😁.
Even if you would manage to get the majority of all great players in KSA, people would still prefer watching the Serie A, Premier League, Bundesliga or La Liga. It's about performing in those leagues along with the champions league. People are not getting hooked on the KSA league or MLS.......they have tried that so many times before going back to the 70's even.
Another masterclass by Athletic Interest ⭐
I wonder how you keep up doing these wonderful videos with such high quality. I really wish more people look into your videos and hopefully Apple or Microsoft sponsors one of your videos with big bucks 😉😉..
Top class content guys, this is analysis with between the lines business approach aka ecosystem, kudos!
Great Video Athletic Interest. Always uploading top quality videos. Can you make a video on jobs in sports
Always Precise.. and I love your Ending TUNE 🎶🎶
It is always a joy to watch your videos! Thank you!
Love your content, business side of sports is so intriguing
really liked the work put in in this video
It’s probably the smartest thing they’ll have done
Messi and Ronaldo are the biggest faces on planet earth!
I totally agree, people underestimate athletes fame and influence
watch some people argue Andrew tate is as big as them
@CucciDaddy andrew tate is very famous, but nowhere as messi and ronaldo, plus he got a lot of haters i mean actual haters that wants him to be dead unlike messi or ronaldo so andrew never gonna be big as lovable famous person
Who? There are only a few people as popular as them with the likes of some world leaders etc
Penaldo in camel league

great content there man always being a fan, I like the way you give perfect detailed explanation, don't take to long before releasing new videos
I never akip any of your videos been there from the begining always love your work🎉
Man, your content is truly amazing!!!
Multiple people who used Vision Pro for the sports part said they would buy the vision Pro and pay to watch games that way it was so good.
My first video from you and this, your work I can tell is EXCELLENT.
Welcome aboard!
Well played with the TITLE ... Great Job.👍👏
subscribed. Top quality video and analysis!
Loved the content that you make.
Love the videos, would be cool to see one about the NHL
maybe about how it lost so much market share, seems up ur alley
Keep up the good work
Pure class as usual guys!
Another amazing video. You guys keep up the great work 👏🏾
Thanks Carl!
Great video. The only thing that wasn’t mentioned was that Apple may say that they wanna keep prices reasonable, but if they have a streaming monopoly there’s really nothing that can be done against that. it’s a risk moving forward..
This video is simply incredible. Keep up the good work.
Just as expected, very well documented. Also thanks for the insights
very interesting video!
Bro, keep it up. Luv your content.
Great video
Your videos are pure gem mate! and it reignites my interest in business the way you connect sports and business is truly unbelievable and magical. Also please try to make a video on Jio. They are streaming sports in India for free. Why? Only you can give the accurate answer.......
Very well done
this is one of the best videos u did so far!
Thanks, César! 🙂
Messi are really going at inter miami
*is
🤓
Yes, all Messis of them
I was waiting for this video
Nice video athletic interest
The closing music!! 😍😍
what an amazing video, Suscribed
Love you vid ❤
Good video 🔥
Probably the best video I'v watched on RUclips this year 👏
What a review! Thank you! 😀
I am not a good english speaker or listener but I just enjoying watching your videos thank you for you are using words which is easy to understand I just discovered your channel this morning and I already watched 2-3 videos.
Thank you and welcome aboard!
I loved how you made a large potion of the video non sports related and made it so interesting. Opportunity for making another channel
great job
Thank you!
One of the best youtube chanels out there!
Exceptional RUclips Channel 🙏🏽💯
Would also like your take on the influx of top dog players in Saudi League and the head spinning salaries they pay.
Great informative video with high production value as always.
Just a quick question if you don’t mind, at 7:43 how does Apple have $2,710b to spend compared to the other major broadcasters having between $10-30b? Where did you get these figures? Apple’s financials for the year ending 2022 shows cash & cash equivalents of max $20.5billion. Kindly explain as I would really want to understand.
Amazing vid
great video and I agree. Also, you will pay to watch the game from normal broadcast, but you will pay double to watch it in VR from the sideline or player cam. Going to be more and more immersive!
great channel
Phenomenal video as usual. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your next one!!
Thanks Joshua!
This Channel has been incredible from Day one, explaining video in a simplicity like any other… however on this one I think missed more details about the link between Messi contract itself and the MLS and apple. Could be easier, especially because of the title other wise can mistakenly be interpreted as a click bait.
But great content anyway!
Their video was created before Messi joined Inter Miami. They've used the opportunity to attract more attention. We should not blame them for click bait, they have great content, if this is helping them increase the views and subscribers and grow the channel, let's support them. Even if the title is not 100% describing the content of the video, I think it's a great choice for attracting attention and helping the channel grow, so we can get even more nice videos in the future. Thanks!
Should be an interesting season for everyone.
Thank you for providing such great contents! It would be awesome if you could provide portuguese subtitles so i could show the videos to my dad. :)
Another amazing video - thank you Athletic Interest :)
I 'm not the biggest fan of apple , I only have a macbook and airpods , but I admire the ability to make new products ( or present old products as something new) and look for new sources of income , really incredible company
Imagine Apple buying the league and experimenting with their VisionOS. That would be insane. They could sell that technology right to other sports and leagues around the world.
Or using that vision to analyze players and steal their talent into a computer.... Sick 😮
This is where Apple has decided to “Think Different”
I see what you did there 👏🏼
One of the best contents on youtube
You guys are awesome. I literally binged all your videos LMAOOO
Kudos to you! such an amazing analysis and presentation. Great job.
great video
Thanks!
That was a subtle burn there comparing an Apple future to 1984 - the exact thing that Apple claimed they were AGAINST when they aired their famous Super Bowl commercial - and doing so USING their own commercial.
You just never Disappoint... Your channel deserves billion subs... I cannot believe i am watching this content for free... It's almost like a masterclass...
This was bloody brilliant! Didn't once mention Messi, but I'm not bothered about it! 👏
Imagine in the near future, they 3D map a stadium and all player in real time, then stream that right to your headset, and by wearing their headset you can put yourself in any position on the field as the game was happening. What a sport viewing experience that must be.
Came on time 🙏🏻
I love your voice and content
That could be the worst thing ever for football / sports in general
agree, only in the United States can it happen that one of the best players goes to a team that is LAST in its league. It clearly goes by what the standard of living in the USA means, not by the level of football.
The narration keeps you yearning. I was hanging on to every punctuation.
This video was : "ooh that's astonishing! absolutely world class!!!"
5:14 what song is playing in the background
does anybody know?
Most channels ran by multi-million dollar companies don't have vids as well made as yours, keep it up bro
“... or they will simply launch a new football with a pro version that costs twice as much but has a better camera and face ID...” 😁😁😁😁 genius
Hey isn’t it how sports streaming is anyway. This is exactly how sports is streamed in India. It’s especially seen in IPL where digital rights are sold separately. Maybe in Europe it does not work this way but Disney (through its subsidiary in India) already does this for EPL.
What a PR team!!
4:17 You Forgot to mention that this is a USA Top 100 not Worlds . FIFA WC , Cricket WC , EPL & IPL would be in the Top 100 not NFL
desde el minuto 3:34 todo suena tan distopico que da mas miedo que alegria
Who edited this video?! 🔥🔥🔥
My mans faster als die Polizei erlaubt
$2.5 billion for 10 Years isn't that much . Disney Paid $3.1 billion - 5 Years deal For IPL Cricket TV Rights
No mention of messi in video
With the vision Pro coming out next year, i wouldn't be shocked if Apple try to create a new way of watching football compared to the traditional sit in front of a tv.
you should be a narrator for a movie. Your voice is made for it
Apple accustomed to having mindless sheeps for its products now they are going to have more of them in sports. Great deal indeed.
It's funny how the video barely mentions or shows Messi lol. Nice content tho.
8:38 🤣🤣
A crab once said, I like money!
Okay, I'll going home to watch Apple Miami in iSoccer 💀
4:10 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Whats the name of the song in conclusion ?
