Streaming should kill Cable TV with movie admins and shows at a low monthly price. But in recent years, streamers look more like cable than ever, with high ad-supported tiers, premium plans, bundles, and live programming. Some platforms such as Hulu and YouTube TV even offer live TV packages, which allow users of cable capes to STREAM CABLE. In short, the famous non-untgling is not what it is all cracked up to be.

Now, YouTube TV is looking to break the mainstream cable package. The subscription service is set to introduce 10 cheaper genre-specific credit channel bundles on Cable Credit in the New Year, according to an exec.

“TV needs to be flexible, giving viewers more control over what they want to watch,” said Christian Oestlien, YouTube’s VP of subscriptions, in a Blog post. “Our goal is to allow you to customize your subscription with more options.”
Mini cable packages are called TV plans.

Only one specific plan has been announced so far. Youtube TV Sports plans to provide subscribers with all major broadcasters as well as sports networks such as FS1, NBC Sports Network, all ESPN networks, as well as ESPN Unlimited.

These plans can also be combined, while other subscriptions such as NFL Sunday Ticket Sunday and Redzone can be offered as an add-on. Youtube TV keeps most of the details to itself.

Although the prices for the bite-sized plans have not been announced, Oestlien said they are cheaper than the Basic TV Package, which has more than 100 channels for $82 per month.

The news comes after YouTube TV had controversial negotiations with various media partners this year. The Streaming Service prevent blackouts in Nbcunersal and balloon canals earlier this year. But not so lucky in negotiations with Disney.

In November, YouTube TV and Disney finally reached a carriage agreement, concluding a 15 day blackout on disney channels, which include ABC and ESPN.

“We’ve spent the last year working closely with our media partners,” Oestilen said, according to the Hollywood Reporter. “A lot of negotiations, public negotiations as you know, but it’s a lot because we’re working with them on the data that we see, what’s going to happen in the future of television.”
