My phone is set up to disallow paying for anything so I tried
Paramount safely, and as expected, it refused to allow me to pay.

Even so, that's my most straightforward suggestion for the OP.
He can sign up and then cancel & ask for his data to be removed.

I had not seen that "Continue" button so thanks for finding it for us.

I noticed it doesn't check the email you give it because I always give an
app a bogus email address, but I accidentally gave it an address that
existed at first, but then I made it more random and it doesn't verify.
So the OP and anyone else can either skip the login information or give it
bogus login information and it will let you log in if that matters at all.

For some reason I never saw (and still don't see) that speaker icon.
But your tests gave me the confidence to fiddle around and at some point
in the CBS Sports app fiddling with it finally turned the video audio on.
It's weird that it has the video muted at the start though. Why do that?
Until you responded, I had figured it was something wrong on my phone.
So I'm happy you solved that mystery that it's not just me. It's everyone.
What's unusual though is I can't STOP (pause) the video once it plays.
But maybe that's a function of the fact that I can't find the controls.
From the looks of the CBS Sports app, it "appears" that it will play the
superbowl later on today, but it's really up to the OP to figure that out.
