Total amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization was $165 million, $203 million and $120 million in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in amortization expense in 2020 was due to the recognition of a full year of intangible amortization related to CCBA versus seven months in 2019.
Based on the carrying value of definite-lived intangible assets as of December 31, 2021, we estimate our amortization expense for the next five years will be as follows (in millions):
