I’m really surprised by the number of top level comments that are confusing two different products: YouTube and YouTube TV.
YouTube TV is basically cable TV delivered via the internet with some on-demand content and an “unlimited” DVR system. There are multiple tiers via add-on packages (just like cable), and there is no ad-free offering.
YouTube is the video sharing website everyone uses. The ad-free version of which is called YouTube Premium.
These two services have very little in common besides the obvious branding and parent company. The contract/fee dispute is between Disney and YouTube TV, and the result is that YouTube TV is currently not broadcasting Disney-owned television channels. Disney content is still all over YouTube itself via their YouTube “Channels.”
