MLS Season Pass on Apple TV.

With a little more than a month and a half left in the 2024 season, Apple today announced that MLS Season Pass is now free for those who already subscribe to Apple TV+.

If you don’t already subscribe to Apple’s premium streaming service, you can get MLS Season Pass for the rest of the season for just $10 — which isn’t a bad deal considering it also includes the playoffs, as well as bonus competition like the Campeones Cup, which pits last year’s MLS Cup champion Columbus Crew against Liga MX winners Club America. (A Columbus win would make it the second team to win multiple Campeones Cups; the Crew beat Tigres UANL last year.)

MLS Season Pass is in its second season on Apple TV (note that it’s a separate subscription from Apple TV+), and it very quickly proved itself as a must-have service for fans of Major League Soccer. Every match is available, with no blackouts — and you can watch up to four matches at once in multiview. There’s also live analysis with its MLS 360 whiparound show, plus additional stats and per-team features. And you can catch up-and-coming players, too, with MLS NEXT Pro and MLS NEXT matches.

Apple also has a new “Catch Up” feature that’s available after kickoff and will catch you up on anything you might have missed before you join in live.

One big thing to note — this discount is only good for the rest of the 2024 season, and you’ll automatically be renewed for 2025 at full price if you don’t cancel. MLS Season Pass regularly costs $99 for the full season, or $15 a month. The 2025 season schedule won’t be released until later this year, but it should begin toward late February.

MLS Season Pass is available in the Apple TV app, which is available on pretty much any modern connected device, or in a web browser.

Sony’s WH-1000XM6 headphones just became more tempting for gamers who hate gaming headsets
The new update adds Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, giving Sony's premium noise-canceling cans a lower-latency trick for compatible gaming devices.
Sony WH-1000XM6.

Sony's WH-1000XM6 gaming mode is rolling out through firmware version 3.1.5, adding support for Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, or GMAP. The same update also includes general performance improvements, so WH-1000XM6 owners have a real reason to open the Sony Sound Connect app.

It's a handy upgrade for headphones built more for commutes or office silence than late-night matches. Bluetooth lag can make games feel faintly wrong, especially when a footstep or button press lands a fraction too late.

Acer’s 1,000Hz gaming monitor has moved from announcement to Amazon listing. The XV273U F5 is priced at $699.99, giving competitive players a real number to weigh before one of the fastest displays headed to North America actually ships.

Availability is still the problem. Amazon lists the monitor as temporarily out of stock, and Acer has previously pointed to a Q4 North America launch window instead of a firm release date.
