DC United vs Inter Miami live stream: Can you watch for free?

Inter Miami take on DC United in MLS action today, and there's a way you can watch a live stream of the match for free. Here's how.

Still without a loss through their first three games of the season, DC United return home for a big showdown with Lionel Messi and Inter Miami today.

The match is about to start at 2:00 p.m. ET. It will be broadcast live on MLS Season Pass if you live in the United States or Canada, but there’s actually a way you can watch this one for free.

Every MLS game this season is on MLS Season Pass, which is available exclusively through the Apple TV website or app. The service costs $15 per month or $99 for the season (or $13 and $79 if you’re an Apple TV+ subscriber), and there’s no free trial.

However, Apple TV is offering every single match for free this week. You don’t need to sign up for Season Pass or anything–just head over to the Apple TV website or app, find the match that you want, and you’ll be able to start watching. You will need to log-in with an Apple ID in order to watch, but that’s free to get if you don’t have one.

Of course, if you do plan on watching more MLS games throughout the year, Season Pass is pretty much a no-brainer. Not only will you get every MLS game (with no local blackouts), but you also get Leagues Cup games, plus select MLS Next and MLS NEXT Pro matches. But that can be a decision that Future You makes. For now, you can watch DC United vs Inter Miami completely free.

If you’re outside of the United States, the only way to access MLS Season Pass is with the help of a virtual private network (VPN), which hides your location and allows you to access normally geo-locked content from other countries.

NordVPN is safe, fast and works on Apple TV, so that’s a strong choice here. However, if you want some alternatives, you can check out our guide to the best VPN services or our rundown of the best VPN deals in 2024.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.

What is AV2, and why should viewers care?

YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.

YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
