Fubo is increasing its subscription prices by $15 per month following a new carriage agreement with NBCUniversal that restores most, but not all, of the channels lost during the November 2025 blackout. While the deal brings back local NBC affiliates and several national networks, key channels like CNBC and USA Network remain unavailable as they were spun off into Versant. This price hike results in current rates exceeding those prior to the initial dispute.
Background
FuboTV is a prominent virtual MVPD known for its sports-focused channel lineup, frequently engaging in high-stakes carriage negotiations with major media conglomerates. The streaming landscape is increasingly defined by fragmented rights and rising costs as networks spin off assets or demand higher fees for distribution.
