Including all ESPN networks…18 channels in all…

If you don’t watch these channels and this happens you will save 15 bucks a month as YT will lower their rate while these channels are missing.

Personally considering Hulu Live with Disney bundle since the wife has to have hulu basic anyway.  If this happens that is.

I looked at Hulu Live. It costs as much as cable with less channels. No, thanks.

Yeah this is true, all the streaming services of note are expensive these days.  Pretty comparable to cable minus equipment costs etc.  When you include cable bundles they may even be cheaper.

Standalone internet in my area is 90 bucks which feels outrageous but no alternatives really

Well I canceled YT TV and will try Hulu TV with Disney+ bundle.  Looking good so far and ESPN+ is actually kinda nice.  Disney+ has a ton of content now.  Kids are loving it already 

There's a lot of good stuff on Hulu too. And the ESPN+ specials, like the Peyton stuff, is decent

Disney power play for sure here.  Also, Disney is upping the price for Hulu Live TV by 5 bucks next week.  Merry Xmas suckers

It was announced back in November, and they’re giving subscribers more features with the price hike. So not really a predatory price hike in reaction to YouTube.

I wonder if YouTube is going to pull a true sigma move and hold frame during the entire bowl season and CFP

From https://www.sportingnews.com/us/ncaa-football/news/youtube-tv-espn-disney/7qv3nuhg0yn21f60xnq7cosck , the list of games to be aired on ESPN.

Includes:

  • Orange Bowl and Cotton Bowl on Dec 31, CFP championship on Jan 10 (THESE will be the trigger for fans/contracts, moreso than most of the others on the list)
  • Peach, Fiesta, Rose Bowl, Sugar -- while many games will be interesting to watch, the regional bowl games don't always have as large a national pull as the CFP.
  • Texas, Outback, Citrus.  LSU, Kentucky, Arkansas.... 
  • Oh no, we won't get the Pinstripe Bowl, the Cheez-It Bowl, the Fenway Bowl, Quick Lane Bowl, Guaranteed Rate Bowl....   That Kent State v Wyoming game is going to be riveting!

I jest, slightly -- but some of these bowl games are not going to showcase the players we may be interested in for draft potential as well as watching the same players during the competitive season.  For some of these games, they sometimes come across as glorified pro bowls.

We’re happy to share that we’ve reached a deal with Disney to return their content to YouTube TV while preserving a $64.99/mo. price for our members. We’ve already started to restore access to Disney networks like ESPN and FX, including their live and on-demand content, as well as any recordings that were previously in your Library. We will also be turning on your local ABC stations over the course of the day. Don’t worry, your personal preferences and recommendations will be just as you left them.

As we promised a $15 discount while the Disney content remained off platform, we will still honor a one-time credit for all impacted Base Plan members.

    • Well at least we got the first zinger about Bryce haters out of the way on the first page. Folks here also groaned about Teddy Bridgewater and Sam Darnold haters too. We actually looked significantly worse after Reich was fired. That shutout loss to the Jaguars missing their starting QB is one of the worst I've seen in a long time. And that's saying something for our Panthers. People can want to protect him from meanies online but there are still 17 games to be played and 16 games worth of tape on him that plenty of defenders are waiting to pounce on. I can assure they don't give a damn about haters.
    • Look you should know by now the only way to reverse the outcome of a game is by making some grand pronouncement on this forum which usually assures the reverse happens. lol
    • Be in the MVP discussion and no, that’s not a joke, it would literally take that type of season for me to begin to consider him as the possible long term QB of the future.  It’s because I think he’s THAT bad, even him just improving won’t convince me that he should be thought of as a long term solution. For me, it’s a very simple discussion, he doesn’t posses a single above average physical trait for todays QB position, and he doesn’t have many at even an average level, most are below average to downright awful. And that’s just not something you should be trying to build a team around, especially with the direction the position is moving in todays game.    None of this is a surprise either, it was all there on tape before the draft, it never made sense to me to think he has some super brain that is so superior to any one else’s that it can overcome the fact that he has the physical abilities of an average high school QB. I still think he has the potential to be a gap starter type of QB in this league, like a Teddy Two Gloves. But that’s not who I want to try and build around for the future in the slightest. it was a horrible trade and an even worse pick, sunk cost already, just gotta ride him out until we are in a position to draft someone new, potentially as early as next draft (although I’m not against sucking for two years and doing it in 2026 if there isn’t anyone worth it next year, just like the Bears just did, trade the pick and compile assets for an extra year).
