About This Settlement
Disney agreed to pay $50 million as part of a partial class action settlement to resolve claims that it violated federal antitrust laws by raising the price of live TV subscriptions, such as YouTube TV and DirecTV Stream.
The Disney settlement benefits individuals who purchased a YouTube TV subscription or a DirecTV streaming live pay TV subscription (DirecTV Stream, DirecTV Now and AT&T TV Now) between April 1, 2019, and March 31, 2026.
According to the antitrust class action lawsuit, Disney violated federal antitrust laws by working with other companies to raise the price of live TV subscriptions. As a result, consumers allegedly paid higher prices for services such as YouTube TV and DirecTV Stream.
