T-Mobile is adding a free Apple TV+ subscription for those with its Magenta Max plan.

Starting Wednesday, Aug. 31, customers on the Magenta Max plan, which currently runs $85 per month for one phone line, can tune into original series like Severance, Ted Lasso, and The Morning Show, plus Major League Baseball coverage and games.

The Un-carrier previously offered a free year of Apple TV+ (a $49.99 value) to Magenta and Magenta Max customers, a deal that ends on Wednesday, just as the new promo kicks in. Moving forward, customers on T-Mobile's priciest plan can access endless free streaming—as long as they maintain a qualifying Magenta Max line in good standing.

Magenta users, meanwhile, will get six months of gratis viewing before the Apple TV+ plan automatically renews at $4.99 per month.

"Magenta Max customers love streaming...so of course, we're giving them more of what they love," T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert said in a statement.

The company now offers four streaming platforms to customers: Apple TV+, Netflix (the $9.99/month Basic plan for Magenta and $15.49/month HD-capable Standard for Max), a year of Paramount+ Essentials, and one year of Spanish-language Vix+.

T-Mobile, meanwhile, announced last week that it will team up with SpaceX to use its constellation of low-Earth-orbit Starlink broadband satellites to augment cellular coverage for messaging at some point next year.
