YouTube TV and the The Walt Disney Company have failed to reach an agreement on a streaming contract. As of Friday, ABC and ESPN, along with more than 20 channels, will be removed from Google’s YouTube TV.

If you wake up to the news that YouTube TV loses Disney channels, you’re not completely out of luck. Plenty of alternative services still carry Disney-owned networks, including Hulu + Live TV, Sling TV’s Orange tier (for ESPN only), Fubo, and cable providers like Spectrum or Comcast.

The breakdown is the most serious in a string of fights YouTube has had with Paramount, Fox, NBCUniversal and TelevisaUnivision as the streamer’s importance has grown.

The $83-per-month cable replacement service is Google’s proposal for a single destination for all home entertainment requirements, but the company has struggled to come to fresh terms with Walt Disney.

From a potential blackout of Disney-owned networks on YouTube TV to the impressive sales of Apple's iPhone 17 in China, there was no shortage of news in the tech world this week.
