Something tells me people didn’t realize how weak youtube tv is without Disney channels until they woke up and saw QVC as a channel in place of all those ESPN channels. It is now a useless option for tv sadly.

Well this sucks, I have really gotten use to watching some games on my phone while away from home.

So no agreement with YouTube TV. Good! I hope there is never an agreement and they (ESPN) don’t come back to YouTube TV.

The only live sporting event I care about watching at all is LSU football. And that’s no problem at all.

Stopped watching their woke bullshite several years ago plus my bill is cheaper! Good riddance!

Well YouTube sure showed them didn’t they. Disney knows people will just switch providers to watch their content. They aren’t caving to YouTube. More likely to just buy YouTube than lower prices. YouTube is trying to help us and ends up losing a dozen channels we want. Thanks!

You can still do that. I do it all the time when I visit family in Florida.

They took $15 off my bill for dropping these channels. ESPN+ is $6.99 a month. Wipe your tears with your additional $8


The problem is that's not how ESPN+ works. You still need a service provider to watch most sporting events aired by ESPN.

If you enjoy soccer and mid-major basketball then you're in luck though.

FuboTV seems like the best alternative.

Fubo for me. Not a Hulu live fan. It was always freezing on me and it's a pain to cast when I'm in another location.

Here’s the deal. If you want ESPN, SEC Network, etc, you have to switch providers (unless YouTube miraculously strikes a deal with Disney).
ESPN+ is not ESPN and you cannot watch ESPN 1, 2, U, SEC on that service.
Disney is a majority stakeholder in Hulu, so no f’ing way I’m switching to them. Plus I tried the free trial a while back and their interface sucks.
DirecTV Streaming is way too expensive.
It looks like FUBO TV has all the channels I want (I mostly watch sports) and is priced the same as YouTube TV before they lost all the Disney channels.
