Launched in 2017, it offers a wide selection of over 100 channels, including major networks and OTT-originated services. Key features include access to live linear channel feeds and on-demand programs, along with a cloud-based DVR for recording and playback. YouTube TV functions as a virtual multichannel video programming distributor, delivering a comprehensive television viewing experience over the internet.
YouTube TV is set to remove Tastemade, Court TV, and The Young Turks from its platform. Subscribers are urged to back up their DVR recordings before the channels are officially dropped by the end of September.
