The new ‘Hulu for Sports’ streaming service has a name: Venu Sports


It’s definitely a better name than “Spulu.”

We’ve known for months who is working on the service; it’s a co-venture from ESPN, Fox, and Warner Bros. Now, we also know what it’s going to be called: Venu Sports. The naming announcement comes a few months after the three networks said they were planning to launch a “differentiated sports-centric service,” a much-needed simplification of an increasingly chaotic sports streaming landscape. Sports rights are more expensive than ever and are being split up among more partners than ever, so having a way to share costs, infrastructure, and content makes a lot of sense.
