I recently attended a celebrity filled event where AT&T’s newest product from DirecTV, DirecTV Now, was announced!
DirecTV Now will now offer homes complete streaming capabilities! For those without cable, but with Internet access, you can now have many more channels to view!
Here are the top five reasons to switch to DirecTV Now:
1. Far less expensive than cable TV!
The least expensive DirecTV Now package starts at $35, and if you sign up now you can lock in a more expensive package for the introductory price, which is far less than cable, which is usually starts at over $100!
2. Travels with you on your devices!
Since there is no dish, and this is a streaming service, it will work on your mobile devices wherever you have service!
3. Branded content not found anywhere else from Taylor Swift and Reese Witherspoon coming soon!
Reese Witherspoon announced her company, Hello Sunshine, will run exclusive material, and a show with Reese, starting in January! Taylor Swift will have her own channel on DirecTV Now, that’s 24/7 of Miss Swift, all day every day, with never before seen content!
4. Backed by AT&T
AT&T mobile customers using DirecTV Now will not have streaming count toward monthly data limits. Many of us have learned how much data is used through streaming the hard way, by running out!
5. Convenience: No dishes needed!
This is a streaming service, so now satellite dishes or cable boxes needed, no sitting at home waiting for a technician to arrive! There is no annual contract, so you are not locked in forever!
Celebrities were everywhere at the intimate party that I attended for this launch announcement! And of course it made sense to have many folks from TV shows that will be streaming on this channel!
Here I am with Reese Witherspoon chatting about her show, Hello Sunshine, premiering in January:
And then there were your regular TV star types just hanging out with us. After all, their shows will be live streaming on AT&T’s DirecTV Now, this was the perfect place for them to be! Terry Crews is currently starring in Brooklyn Nine–Nine on Fox, and Ana Gasteyer, currently starring in People of Earth on TBS!
All of these folks will be seen on DirecTV Now! As will my friends from Freeform TV, Alberto Rosende from Shadowhunters, and Ritesh Rajan , Emma Ishta and Kyle Harris from Stitchers! These are two of my favorite shows, and I can see them all the time with DirecTV Now!

We are looking for an alternative to another streaming service. This might be a good one to check out. (and what a fun event! A little jelly of the Reese pic. 😉 )
We don’t have this, but it looks like a good thing! Also, can I say that I am insanely jealous of the people you’ve met! How fun!
Wow, that is pretty cool, hanging out with Reese Witherspoon!
This sounds like a really neat service. I would love to be able to stream shows on my phone. They definitely offer a lot of nice features!
I think dish seems like such a pain. Direct TV sounds like a great alternative. (We still use rabbit ears!)
I can tell you…. we are so sick of Time Warner and all the crap that I am ready to try something new.
although ive had direct tv for over 10 years? the price hikes are coming fast and furious since at@t took over..im just sayin…
