The fallout from Google’s beef with Disney looks like it’s nearly finally o
 

TL;DR

• Disney pulled its channels from YouTube TV at the end of October after failing to renegotiate a contract with Google.
• As a consequence of that, Disney’s Movies Anywhere service stopped syncing with YouTube and Google purchases.
• While it’s not restored just yet, Movies Anywhere now shares that it’s working to get that functionality back again.

When massive corporations like Google and Disney butt heads with each other, the reverberations can continue for a lot longer than you might expect. Back at the end of October, after the two failed to reach a new deal, Disney-owned channels were removed from YouTube TV. That was the outcome everyone expected, but then things started going further: First we saw the Google Play Store and Google TV drop sales of Disney titles. And then Disney’s Movies Anywhere service stopped syncing with Google Play and YouTube purchases. After a couple weeks, the companies worked things out, but there’s still a little mess left to clean up.
