Another day has passed without a resolution to the contract dispute between Disney and YouTube TV, so it’s another day of YouTube TV subscribers missing out on great live sports and more.
The streamer and the network owner are still reportedly “far apart” in discussions and there does not seem to be an end in sight for the dispute, which has left subscribers without ABC and ESPN, among other Disney-owned channels.
Subscribers have already missed one stacked Saturday of college football and Monday Night Football this week; now, tonight, ESPN will broadcast an NBA doubleheader that begins with the Minnesota Timberwolves on the road against the New York Knicks.
