If the agreement with Disney isn't renewed, the Disney-owned channels on YouTube TV could be lost. The current deal with Disney is due to end on Friday, December 17th, and if it isn't renewed, the channels could disappear.

Disney wants to treat YouTube TV like any other TV provider, by offering us the same rates that services of a similar size pay, across Disney's channels for as long as we carry them.

Here is the list of channels that have been impacted. According to The Hollywood Reporter, eight ABC local stations could disappear from YouTube TV.

Disney said in a statement that it is committed to working with Google to reach a fair, market-based agreement.

Disney said they are optimistic that they can reach a deal and continue to provide their YouTube TV customers with their live sporting events and news coverage.

We want to be transparent and give you a heads-up during active conversations. Disney is an important partner, and we are optimistic that we can work with them to keep their content on YouTube TV. For live updates:

If a deal can't be reached by December 17th, YouTube TV will decrease its prices by 15 per month. It says that customers are free to pause or cancel their memberships at any time, and points them towards Disney's $13.99) per month streaming bundle if they want to keep access to some of Disney's content.

This is the latest in a long line of disputes between the two companies. These have affected the company's deals to offer streaming content from other companies, as well as its agreements with hardware providers to host YouTube's apps. The service was just days away from losing access to NBCUniversal's channels before reaching an agreement in early October, and this month it finally reached an agreement with Roku for it to continue carrying YouTube's apps.
