YouTube TV reaches new deal to keep Paramount content | TechCrunch
Briefly

YouTube TV and Paramount reached a new agreement that will prevent disruptions to channel availability, including CBS and CBS Sports. The deal enhances streaming options, allowing YouTube TV to offer Paramount+ to qualifying customers. Google confirmed its content will remain accessible and expressed appreciation for subscribers' patience during negotiations. However, Paramount's co-CEOs criticized Google for unwillingness to accept market-consistent terms. The agreement follows warnings that Paramount's channels would be removed, highlighting the ongoing tensions in the pay TV industry regarding content rights and bundling.
The reality is, you can't have a successful video product without Paramount, one of the leading media companies, especially in sports and kids programming.
We're happy to share that we've reached a deal to continue carrying Paramount channels, including CBS, CBS Sports, Nickelodeon and more.
