How can I load the YouTube TV app?

[AC Question]

I don't see the YouTube TV app in the Google Play Store on the Nexus Player... is that intentional? It seems like it would be a slam dunk to include it. Is there any way to side load it?

Not if you can't find it. But if you look here, you'll see a few Youtube apps by Google, so you don't have to sideload it. And if an app comes as an .apk file, all you do is tap the apk file, you don't have to sideload anything. (Sideload is an old term used for installing zip packages using adb [since JellyBean] - we just install apk files.) (Unless you want to go way back, to when AT&T wouldn't allow installation from Amazon, so you had to download the apk file, then tap it. That was also called sideloading - back around 2009.)
