Sept 8 (Reuters) - Satellite TV provider DirecTV has

filed a complaint with the U.S. Federal Communications

Commission (FCC), accusing Walt Disney ( DIS ) of failing to

negotiate in good faith and engaging in anticompetitive

behavior, the company said on Sunday.

In the complaint, DirecTV said Disney ( DIS ) has imposed

unreasonable conditions on the renewal of their distribution

agreement, including demands for bundling and penetration

requirements that a federal court recently ruled unlawful.

DirecTV also said that Disney ( DIS ) has insisted on a "fat bundle"

of channels, forcing the carrier to offer less popular

programming while Disney ( DIS ) provides consumers with cheaper,

"skinnier" packages.

A Disney ( DIS ) spokesperson, in response, said the company

continues to negotiate with DirecTV and urged it to finalize a

deal that would prioritize customers.

"We continue to negotiate with DirecTV to restore access to

our content as quickly as possible," the spokesperson said in an

emailed statement to Reuters.

The dispute has already resulted in over 11 million DirecTV

subscribers losing access to Disney ( DIS )-owned channels, including

ESPN ( DIS ), ahead of the National Football League season.

The standoff comes amid a broader debate over the future of

bundled programming in the streaming era, with DirecTV seeking

to offer more flexible, lower-cost packages without ESPN ( DIS ), while

Disney ( DIS ) argues for protecting its flagship networks.
