The email itself looks like an ad for Directv Now. If you scroll down, it says that the Apple TV shipped.
The subject is "Full stream ahead! Your big screen is about to take over..."
I'm on the left coast so it took 5 days to get to me. It shipped last Friday (12-2) from IL.
I've been watching the bandwidth stream using System X-Ray with Firetv box. First thing I noticed was NOW dipping to 1.8 Mbps all the time. PSVue is much steadier around 5 Mbps. This most likely is the issue during prime-time causing freeze and buffering. Those using Fire TV can turn on and off X-Ray below....
Remote: Press and hold D-Pad Center and D-Pad Down together for 5 seconds, then press the menu button on the remote... Select on. Just reverse to turn off.

Left coaster here too, signed up on Nov 30th, shipped on Dec 6th for arrival on the 12th. Coming from Milan, IL via FedEx.
It will be the second one I'll get since I already got one when I signed up in-store, I guess they got their wires crossed up.

Mine is down. Website loads nothing and Apple TV just gives me a black screen. Googling is a useless as trying to talk to a rat.
I've been pretty unusable tonight since about 4:30. Setting up my new Apple TV in the meantime but pretty annoyed. I'd be less so if there would be a statement acknowledging the issue and providing some sort of ETA. If they get the freezing fix I'd most likely kill my satellite once the NFL playoffs are over. Don't want to miss NBC games.
Might be. Not at home but mobile app using Verizon and att devices gives me the error 30 message.

If I were home it's not like I could watch it anyway. Lol.
Contractor for a regional cell company apparently dug up and broke a shared fiber line used by them, att, and our local cable company.
Internet and TV (cable) outage for two counties.
When it comes to DirecTV Now though, I am glad this is free for now. I can deal with issues in hopes that they resolve them.
There is absolutely no way that I would pay for it as my primary TV source, or even a backup. Not as it stands today. I don't care how good the deal is. Once my money has to cover it, I'm out if there isn't vast improvement.
I did have the same growing pains with sling. Used it, and when the walking dead premiered on season it was unusable, and was again during another ratings high event. That's why I never cut the cord when it first came out and held on to see what was next.
To me, If it won't work when I need it, then I don't.
Vue has worked every single day for me since it went nationwide.
Now they may have had issues that they fixed when they did the big city roll out, but if that's the case, then maybe the other two should have done the same.

That's what I anticipated. Apparently they they had several crews on it. Only off around 12 hours.
I was impressed they fixed it so quickly.

Still down here
Got off vue to check when I saw the post.
Rebooting the fire TV to see if that helps.
