Disney has the leverage here.
And they do this shite every year with a different carrier during football season which ultimately drives up the cost to consumer.
Last year it was DirecTV

Yes and typically, you would expect a resolution.
But this year is different as they just launched their own standalone shite. That's why I'm not holding my breath.

Let me know what that price looks like three years from now

I have unlimited too, but maybe need to sign out and back in. Thanks for the tip

Yeah, I’m waiting out. If the CFB playoffs get here with no agreement then I’ll probably switch, but YTTV’s great interface plus the ability to have your sub in different households is unmatched.
YtTVs interface sucks arse. I can't tell you the number of times it takes me 2-3 minutes to find a game because it's exceeded the expected end time or because it's been moved to a different channel due to a weather delay, etc. They need to have people updating that stuff instantly and putting the updated options into my home feed.

You're literally the only person I've seen to say this. YTTV has the best interface of any streamer and it's not particularly close IMO

and? things cost money. its the way of the world. if you dont or wont pay it thats fine and i get that but to act like i'm some sort of fool for paying it is a bit ridiculous. i like watching sec football and if i have to pay $30 a month to do it , i will.

I’m glad to be on Hulu right now, but Hulu interface is much worse than YouTube. Not close.

I've used DTV/ATT streaming, YTTV, Hulu and Fubo and this is a problem on all of them

Not even close. They lose $5 million per day YTTV isn’t streaming. Google yearly revenue is 5 times that of Disney. They can wait them
Out. Disney stands to lose over $2billion per year if they don’t get this worked out.

I am paying for an iPTV service provider. Show me the statute that I am violating.
And for the record I subscribe to ESPN plus as well. No less than a dozen times they have broken an implied agreement with them by making it impossible to log on to their service at various times. It happens to just about everyone at some time or another. So who is the thief here?

The odds those estimated figures are accurate are close to 0.
The YTTV subscribers have options
1. Stop consuming ESPN content
2. Consume the content illegally
3. Use the alternatives (ESPN's standalone, Hulu, Fubo TV, cable).
ESPN is betting enough #3 will make up for the rest. We'll see how it plays out.

5 x365=1,825 plus as revenue loss = close to 2 billion per year.
Google made 350 billion last year. Disney made 90 Billion.

And the feud is certainly hurting Disney's pockets as well, as they're losing an estimated $5million per day according to Awful Announcing.

Again, that's an estimate.
And some people are switching, as they switch, the delta becomes lower. So even if that figure is right you can't extrapolate that out. Going to take a while for the dust to settle.

That dude consistently has the worst takes on absolutely everything. I've never seen anyone say the YTTV interface is bad, much less that it "sucks arse."
For anyone that is a YouTubeTV subscriber like myself that doesn't want to cave to Disney right away and pirate 20 different games this Saturday, SlingTV has a day pass for $5 with $1 more for the sports pass. So $6 with no added fees to get through another weekend. Hopefully this shite is resolved if Disney is losing as much as some on this thread are saying they are.

This is my plan for this Saturday. I don’t want to cave to Disney and I also have Sunday Ticket on YTTV so cancelling isn’t an option anyway.
Posted on 11/7/25 at 5:51 am to Marktastic86
I'm doing the free 5 day direct tv trial. I just have to remember to cancel it before it's up or I get charged.
