YouTube TV has lost Disney and ESPN — here's 3 live TV streaming services to consider instead
Over 10 million YouTube TV subscribers just lost access to all Disney-owned networks, including ESPN and ABC. At midnight on Oct. 30, the distribution deal between Disney, which owns ESPN, ABC and numerous other networks, ended, and at present, there's no deal in place to keep the networks on the nation's most popular live TV streaming service.
For eight years, The Roku Channel has been one of the better free streaming options available. It hosts live content plus on-demand TV shows and movies, all for no charge ( Roku says it has "thousands of free TV shows and hit movies," plus more than 500 live TV channels).
Media giant ViacomCBS Inc (VIACA.O) said on Monday it has entered an agreement with Hulu to add 14 more networks, including Comedy Central, MTV, VH1 and Nickelodeon, to the streaming service provider's paid live TV platform.
YouTube TV has undergone public content rights battles with more than half of the major media companies, but the Disney spat looms large.
