YouTube TV will likely be dropping NBCUniversal channels starting on October 1. Price will go down $10 a month though, while they work this out. https://tv.youtube.com/learn/service-update/ This means no more live NASCAR for YTTVers races unless you have broadcast TV, since Cup and Xfinity aren't on Peacock.

I've been avoiding switching because it just seems like an annoyance to have to switch services, set up all my DVR stuff, get used to a new UI but YTTV finally has me to the point where I have to. Losing the regional sports networks sucked because I'm a big Bruins fan and without NESN I could only see them on national NHL broadcasts. Then they come out and say Roku will no longer support them, but if you already have the app on Roku you'll be able to use it just don't accidentally delete it or get a new Roku or you have to go through some convoluted process to get YTTV through the YouTube app and now this. I guess it's on to Fubo? Honestly I don't think I want to go back to straight cable, I actually like having the apps and stuff plus I can easily connect on my phone and my xbox and don't have to have a bunch of cable boxes and crap to set up and then return when the price gets too high and switch to the other cable guy for 2 years, repeat, repeat.

You can always look into IPTV services as well, I've been fiddling with an Astranet setup to help augment UK/European sport coverage and it's pretty slick. Between the rate hikes and the channel spats, YTTV is definitely getting on my nerves.

YouTube TV has two big advantages for me, easy and unlimited DVR and It Just Works™ because it's YouTube. Peacock is extremely anal about DRM to the point where I can't watch their stuff on an external TV from my PC over HDMI or pipe the audio through Android Auto in my car. Losing the RSNs was a point of annoyance, but on the other hand I'm in Los Angeles where I had to deal with TWC/Spectrum buying out the TV rights to the Dodgers and Lakers just so they could launch two new sports networks and keep them behind a cable TV paywall, so I wasn't missing much there. That being said, I have noticed that the majority of my watch time on YTTV lately has been through NBC for Indycar, IMSA, NASCAR, Supercross, and most of the other things they have. I can live without it at the lower price, but if it comes back more expensive I could probably do without it.

There's more to this story. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2021/09/nbc-demanded-that-youtube-tv-bundle-peacock-or-lose-access-to-nbc-channels/ Apparently NBCU was trying to force YouTube to bundle in Peacock in order to renew carriage rights. NBC turned tail in a hurry once this came out. The experts in the article expect NBCU to cave and re-up and get everything will go back to normal. Hopefully that's the case. Things must be pretty bad for Peacock if NBCU is trying to pull this horseshit.

As a just in case I signed up for FuboTV free trial for the next week, since the NBC deal ends tomorrow and I have not seen any updates when searching. Talladega coming up plus Brady V Pats on Sunday night football. Bad weekend to lose NBC in your channel lineup if you're a NASCAR fan, New England sports fan, or in my case both. I might just stick with it since hockey season is coming up too and Fubo has NESN.

Looks like a "short extension" has been agreed. At least handegg and plate racing will be watchable this weekend without shenanigans. Edit: "We’re thrilled to share that we’ve reached a deal with NBCUniversal to continue carrying the full NBCUniversal portfolio of channels, including their Regional Sports Networks and your local NBC station. That means you won’t lose access to any of their channels, and YouTube TV will continue to offer 85+ networks for $64.99* per month. We appreciate NBCUniversal’s willingness to work toward an agreement, and we also appreciate your patience while we negotiated with them on your behalf. Thanks again for being a YouTube TV member." mischief fucked around with this message at 19:22 on Oct 2, 2021 |

NBC, Our streaming service is complete poo poo and we have no subscribers, what do we do? Wait YouTubeTV has lots of subscribers... I know what to do... Lets bundle! YouTube: gently caress off with that 90s cable poo poo. NBC: Okay sorry, can't blame us for trying.

From a local paper: https://www.classiccitynews.com/post/former-nascar-driver-son-of-zaxby-s-co-founder-killed-in-athens-shooting quote:Townley was said by sources to have been armed with an axe when he entered the house at 240 Morton Avenue and the Dunwoody man fatally shot him and Laura Townley was accidently struck by gunfire.

chamois posted:if bubba is out front when the rain starts they're gonna call it instantly They just sort of laid out the scenario. Takes ~2 hours to dry the entire track, it's almost 4pm, sunset is 630ish. Race is probably over if it rains hard. A win is a win, would be awesome for Bubba.

1st year team getting a win is a pretty huge deal, even if that team is a satellite team of Gibbs really. That team has a ton of big sponsors and if they can get things going at the end of this year to setup 2022, they could be in good shape. Seems like Bubba's new crew chief has been really good for him too.
