Disney is losing a staggering amount of money each day that its carriage fee dispute with Google continues, it has been revealed.
Disney pulled all of its channels, including ESPN and ABC, off of Google's YouTube TV on October 30, enraging millions of fans ahead of a massive weekend of sports.
And the feud is certainly hurting Disney's pockets as well, as they're losing an estimated $5million per day according to Awful Announcing.
The math comes from the approximately 10million monthly subscribers that YouTube TV has, and the $15 that Disney receives per month - per subscriber - from TV providers for their content.
All told, Disney would lose around $150million per month if the ongoing feud stretches on that long.
Amid contract negotiations with Google, Disney made the decision to pull the plug and blackout its content from YouTube TV last week.

Google, for their part, has said that the term deals that Disney is seeking would raise prices for customers.
YouTube TV customers pay $83 per month for the streamer's base plan.
The Google-Disney dispute continued on Monday night as millions of fans remained without access to ESPN and ABC for the NFL's Monday Night Football clash between the Cowboys and Cardinals.
Millions of YouTube TV subscribers already missed out on a chunk of crucial college football action on Saturday.
