ESPN/ABC just went out on YouTube TV

[lastlapuncle]

Big Disney-they used to mean good entertainment and fun but with Iger,now only monoply money and raising prices for all their stuff.Who can afford to take their family to Disneyworld anymore.A four day trip to the park with a room starts at around 2,000.Who can swing that.Big corp cares nothing except more CEO money and benes.Commmon folk(like 96% of Volnation cannot swing that anymore without not paying something.Greed is the foundation of everything that is left in our America.From the top down,coaches,polititions,ceo's-if they were to need a human to help them in a crisis,they would come begging.Otherwise,pay up or go to hell.I won't be seeing it,but,Go Vols kick some sooner ass!

I've been a big fan of YTTV and I love SEC football and SEC Nation, so this breakup was a pisser. I have signed up for ESPN (Disney+) and feel like a sucker for doing it. But tomorrow my Saturday will still feel normal with access to all the SECFB. I weighed all the options and ended up here. Sadly, the more folks that do what I did, the less likely it is that Disney will negotiate in the future. I fed the monster. Sorry.

Fubu tv for 1 day trial.

Go get a OTA Antenna.......I get about 80+ free channels with mine. ABC, CBS, NBC included......and the picture is excellent because its not condensed.

Just hooked one up and verified I can get the local ABC affiliate

I just bought an antenna for about 20 bucks

Hope they figure this out by 7:30 Saturday night.

ESPN, Disney channels blacked out on YouTube TV in contract dispute

About 10 million YouTube TV customers lost access to ESPN, ABC and other Disney-owned channels amid a busy sports calendar that includes college football and a "Monday Night Football" game between the Arizona Cardinals and Dallas Cowboys.

Just signed up for streaming DirecTV 60 something dollars a month and you can cancel in 5 days if you want and I kind of like their system so I may stick with them before it's over with

Disney has controlling stake in fubo and owns Hulu. If you are switching from youtube tv, Disney wins big time. The mouse has no incentive to negotiate. I watch games delayed because I just have pure hatred for the mouse.

Mickey Mouse wants all the cheese.

Where do you find one? Easy to set up?

I have the bundle with Disney+, ESPN+, and Hulu but it’s Hulu without live TV. I’m pretty sure that means I’m out of luck unless they have it included to watch ESPN and ABC content live. Pretty sure they don’t…

 

[deezvols]

If only Disney would go belly-up

 

[volfanecs]

Am I OK with Directv

 

[Delmar]

I've canceled my YouTube TV. The only reason I have is to watch the Vols. Does Sling still do their $5 a day Promotion?

I read that they are still offering that deal.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Mike Keith it is!

They Killed of big time boxing by making all the fights pay per view. It used to be a major event. Now it's only mentioned in the footnotes. You're right. The NFL is transitioning to PPV. Thursday night NFL is their pilot program. I would expect them to start with the playoff games first.

That will just ensure that I’ll never watch another NFL game. Don’t watch them that much now.

Well, I guess its Mike Keith on the radio Saturday night.

You won't be disappointed

Disney keeps doing this ESPN/Disney access hostage play with different carriers like Youtube TV, Spectrum, etc because they want us to cancel those streaming platforms and switch to Hulu, which Disney owns.

Great I’m beginning to hate YouTube!!!

It's not YT's fault. ESPN is demanding more money but YTTV is resisting because that means they're gonna have to raise prices. All this is is Disney/ESPN trying to get people to ditch YT and sign up for Hulu or the new ESPN service. And judging by the posts in this thread, it's working.

Is rather sandpaper a lion's butt in a phone booth than directly give Disney one cent of my money.

Swap to Dish. They went through the same thing during week 1 this season. Last season it was Direct TV. If you haven’t noticed the pattern - It’s Disney.

 

[Vol in Buckeye Land]

Use an antenna. Buy one. Or make one.

Some of y'all are seriously lacking in redneck ingenuity.

 

[adam.vol]

I have Disney+ Hulu, espn+ bundle, which I need to get rid of, but hopefully I can watch the game.

It’s time to get rid of all of that. That’s what I’m thinking if I don’t get to record the game this weekend. This has become a circle jerk with Disney - going from one provider to the next, hiking subscriptions.

Honestly, it would probably be the best thing for my toddler.

That's another "hell no" for me. I'd rather listen to a turd drop in the toilet and splash.
