Overview

• TelevisaUnivision networks, including Univision and UniMas, were removed from YouTube TV, and related DVR recordings and the ViX Premium add-on were pulled.
• YouTube TV told customers TelevisaUnivision’s demands were not supported by the networks’ viewing performance on the service over the past four years.
• NBCUniversal and YouTube TV reached a short-term extension past the contract deadline, preventing an immediate NBC blackout as negotiations continue.
• A key dispute point is YouTube TV’s push to ingest Peacock programming directly into its app, which NBCUniversal resists to maintain Peacock’s standalone value and data control.
• YouTube says it will issue a $10 credit if NBC channels become unavailable for an extended period, with roughly 9–10 million subscribers watching for potential sports and entertainment disruptions.
