Whilst I personally still don't see the value of needing 2 separate subscriptions if I want to watch all televised Premiership games, ESPN on it's own is a good channel which offers a wide range of sports for a decent price. It means people with a tight budget still have the chance to enjoy live English football at a price they can afford. If ESPN won the rights to 69 live Premiership games you'd quickly see their subscription fee jump up to about £20 per month, and it would swiftly be removed from the XL package.
