A number of channels owned by Paramount Global, including CBS, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon and MTV, are scheduled for removal from YouTube TV after Thursday, Feb. 13, due to a contract dispute between the two companies.
"We've been working hard to reach a fair agreement with Paramount that allows us to keep their channels, including CBS and CBS Sports, on YouTube TV without passing on additional costs to our subscribers. Unfortunately, despite our good faith negotiations, we haven't been successful yet," YouTube TV said in a statement.
YouTube TV explained that it is "still actively negotiating with Paramount," but "if we can't reach an agreement and their content is unavailable for an extended period of time, we'll offer subscribers an $8 credit," before suggesting that viewers who want to watch Paramount content can still do so by signing up for Paramount+ and paying an additional $7.99 a month.
"A month after jacking up their monthly subscription price by $10, they're set to remove 24 channels and only offer subscribers an $8 credit in return. This is a joke, @YouTubeTV," wrote one person on X.

Get you in at a lower rate, then reduce the channel line-up while increasing prices. @YouTubeTV could be the one that is different, but no, greed is infectious," another disappointed viewer pointed out.
"Yeah if they don’t reach a deal I think I’m gonna decide to spend my $80 a month elsewhere," somebody else added.
According to a blog post from YouTube CEO Neal Mohan, YouTube TV had over 8 million subscribers as of Feb. 6, 2024.
