Charter’s landmark carriage agreement with Disney last year is beginning to work its way into the pay TV programming landscape with the launch of the ad-supported version of Disney+ on all Spectrum TV Select packages nationwide at no additional cost.
As part of Charter’s efforts to revamp and modernize pay TV video packages for the streaming landscape, the cable operator successfully pushed to get rights to add streaming services to its packages during carriage negotiations with Disney last year. The final agreement also reduced the number of Disney cable channels Charter would have to carry.
