Disney loses weight on YouTube TV: its channels are no longer available in the US

The US channels owned by Disney, including the popular ESPN, FX and ABC, were no longer available as of this Saturday on the US online television platform YouTube TV, as an agreement was not reached between the two companies. .

This means that its approximately 4 million subscribers (YouTube TV is the Internet television service with the most users in the US, above Hulu and Sling) can no longer watch these channels and it is not clear if they will return to the platform. in the future, as collected EFE.

The curious note is that the service stopped being available right in the middle of an NBA basketball game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Minnesota Timberwolves, so that those who followed him on this platform could not see the end of the game.

To compensate its subscribers, YouTube TV (owned by Google, a subsidiary of Alphabet) lowered the price of the subscription from $ 64.99 to $ 49.99 per month and will keep it that way until it takes back the Disney channels.

“We know that this is frustrating for our customers and it is not what we wanted,” they said from the online television service in a statement, in which they also assured that they will continue negotiating with Disney to restore the channels.

“They refused to reach a fair agreement with us based on the conditions and terms of the market,” they pointed out about the entertainment company.

In addition to ABC, FX, and ESPN, subscribers also lost access to Freeform and National Geographic channels.
