![]() If you are a YouTube TV subscriber, you may lose NBC, Bravo, CNBC, E!, Golf Channel, MSNBC, Oxygen, SYFY, Telemundo, The Olympic Channel, Universal Kids, Universo, and USA Network. However, if the over 14 NBCU channels leave, YouTube TV’s monthly subscription price will decrease from $64.99 per month to $54.99 for the duration of this dispute. If “equitable terms” are offered, the contract will be renewed and nothing changes for end users. Google implies that the price increase would hamper its ability to offer YouTube TV at a “competitive and fair price.” Back in August, a YouTube executive said the service would not get a price hike in the “near term.” The YouTube-branded cord-cutting offering says it is seeking the “same rates that services of a similar size get from NBCU.” From the statement, it appears that the broadcaster wants to charge YouTube TV more for access compared to the previous arrangement, which expires this coming Thursday (Sep 30). Our ask is that NBCU treats YouTube TV like any other TV provider. Google this evening issued its response, and said YouTube TV will see a $10 price drop if the NBCU channels disappear. NBC today threatened to pull its channels from YouTube TV if a new contract is not signed.
