The DIRECTV (DTV) merger adds some rich sports content to AT&T’s (T) offerings. Highlighting this benefit, the company said, “As a result of this transaction, AT&T leads the industry in offering consumers premier content, particularly live sports programming, such as the exclusive rights to NFL SUNDAY TICKET, which gives customers every out-of-market NFL game, every Sunday afternoon, on any screen – TV, mobile devices or PCs.”The NFL Sunday Ticket package gives you the opportunity to watch NFL regular-season games broadcast outside your local market. DIRECTV renewed its exclusive distribution contract for the NFL Sunday Ticket in 3Q14.According to the company, this contract adds rights related to NFL Sunday Ticket.TV. NFL Sunday Ticket.TV is a broadband and mobile streaming service. This is particularly significant for AT&T considering Verizon’s (VZ) NFL mobile distribution rights.According to ESPN.com sports business reporter Darren Rovell, DIRECTV has renewed its contract for an eight-year period. The company will have to pay ~$1.5 billion per year for exclusive rights to the NFL Sunday Ticket during this time.

I can answer the latter half ...So does this mean that Uverse customers gain access to NFL Sunday Ticket? Or would one still need the satellite service? If so, do you order satellite service through AT&T now?
On TV, DIRECTV® holds the rights. What the article is referring is sundayTicket.TV, which appears to be an online version of STSo does this mean that Uverse customers gain access to NFL Sunday Ticket? Or would one still need the satellite service? If so, do you order satellite service through AT&T now?
As I " hear it "I can answer the latter half ...
When you call into D * your greeted with Att/D* if your in an att area already .... you can still call directly to D* as well as to att to order D*, you'll also see that on the websites.
Which is actually part of the Max.On TV, DIRECTV® holds the rights. What the article is referring is sundayTicket.TV, which appears to be an online version of ST
Not sure if that is something being offered as of yet ... stay tuned, seeing the season is coming soon, we should find info soon ...So technically a Uverse user could get sundayticket.tv, much like mlb.tv as an online subscription?
Also, this would be addl, not included with your U Verse .NFLSundayTicket.tv is only available in select areas that can't get Directv service... so, in theory, yes, it could be possible to get NFLST.tv if they have u-verse, however this was already possible before the acquisition.
I would guess that you are now in a U Verse area.Well, I placed my address in the eligibility determination portion of nflsundayticket.tv, and it says my address is available. Now that could be because when we moved here in 2010 a directv installer told us he couldn't get LOS during our install and he logged us as unable to receive it? Or, our address is a "uverse address" and we can get it as uverse users. Either way, does anyone know if the streaming version is as good as MLB.tv?
Summary
The combined entities will have a mountain of debt.
Cash flows are too uncertain as they are both tech companies.
The debt should be downgraded.
AT&T (NYSE:T) and Direct TV have dozens of bonds outstanding that are investment grade rated. AT&T is Baa1 rated by Moody's, BBB+ rated by S&P. The most hilarious rating is by Fitch: A-. Direct TV's are Baa2 rated by Moody's, BBB by S&P, and A+ by Fitch. The two combined will have a mountain of debt and liabilities with uncertain cash flows.
The NFL and DirecTV likely will be glad when summer ends, and not just because football season has arrived.In June, July, and now in August, the league and its satellite TV partner have been on the wrong end of class-action lawsuits arising from the NFL Sunday Ticket package.The latest has been filed in federal court in California, on behalf of the Gael Pub in New York City and all restaurants and bars that purchased the package during the relevant time period. The allegations are similar to the claims made in the July lawsuit filed by a San Francisco establishment regarding the limited availability and pricing of out-of-market games.The complaint, a copy of which PFT has obtained, alleges that the sliding-scale of package prices based on maximum occupancy ranges from $1,458 per year to more than $120,000 annually.
