No abc

I am furious that once again we cannot watch abc, espn, etc. on DIRECTV.  Can’t believe there is not a way to foresee and avoid this situation!

All live TV services go through this as carriage agreements come to an end.  This has been being worked on by Directv for a while but the two parties have not been able to come to an agreement.  So Disney decided to pull their feeds to give them more leverage in negotiations as they could have kept the feeds live while they worked on the agreement.  But instead, they take it out on the consumer in hopes that they will switch to Disney+ where they would make more $$$$.  It's not fair to the people who pay expecting those channels to be on their TV service only for Disney to pull them when they don't get their own way.  I know Disney+ does not have ABC live feeds they are just doing this to punish Directv consumers so that they get more money because they own the ABC live feeds.

Go to "tvpromise.com" to get a $20/month discount until the dispute gets settled.
