Still no 1080 huh Disney? Like really? What could be the hold up after almost a decade of other channels having 1080 but the largest network and by far the largest sports network have 1080. Ffs Fox, who is nowhere near espn coverage and $$ into sports offers 4k. But the best Disney/ESPN can do is 720? I feel like I'm being trolled or something.

ESPN and ABC Return to YouTube TV. Here's What Happened | PCMag
November 17, 2025 - (To settle a Fubo lawsuit over the now-defunct Venu sports-streaming service, Disney recently closed a $220 million deal under which it will own 70% of Fubo and Fubo will launch a new service featuring Disney’s sports networks.) Disney told the Associated Press that Google refused to pay a fair rate for valuable content. “With a $3 trillion market cap, Google is using its market dominance to eliminate competition and undercut the industry-standard terms we’ve successfully negotiated with every other distributor." Disney lobbied consumers to complain to YouTube TV. Even ESPN host Scott Van Pelt tweeted a link to a web page offering various ways customers could reach the Google-owned service.

YouTube TV announces $20 credit, ESPN channels unlikely to return ahead of Monday Night Football - On3
November 9, 2025 - An ongoing dispute between YouTube TV and Disney is showing few signs of resolution ahead of Monday Night Football. And as a result YouTube TV is preparing to attempt to make things right for its subscribers. In an e-mail to subscribers on Sunday afternoon, YouTube TV informed its customers that it will offer a $20 bill credit as a result of the company’s ongoing carriage dispute with Disney. The dispute has caused customers to miss out on ESPN’s offerings since the dispute began, with the ESPN-affiliated channels blacked out on YouTube TV.

Disney wants to funnel any viewers who want to watch CBB/CFB to ESPN+/Fubo/Hulu and now I can't watch football this weekend, and if they don't figure out the contract dispute by early next week I won't be able to watch UK's season opener. I am unhappy.

Let’s get this straight. ESPN are the most expensive channels on any platform. And now they want more because they overbid for their content? I fully support YouTube TV for trying to keep our rates low.

Everyone blaming YouTube is missing the point. Disney is trying to either push people to Hulu (owned by Disney) or make YouTube pay more to carry ESPN/ABC channels (also owned by Disney)
