DIRECTV NOW Launching in November!

[Ronnie-]

Well, website is still the same "insert email here" as it was, so I guess if it does go live in some form today, it wont be early morning.

Now as I said before it won't be today. I am now expecting it before Thanksgiving.

Very interesting!

Strange they mention CBS when earlier reports saying CBS was not on board.
I hope this stays contract free but seeing how they may be tying devices with services for extended service I'm not going to hold my breath for the future.

From that article-

Subscribers will be able to stream local programming from NBC in some markets, but only on PCs and mobile devices. “NBC local channels are currently unavailable using streaming devices or smart TVs,” the leaked documents explain.

Which is strange since our local NBC ( WDIV Detroit ) is on Vue and is not even a O&O station.

So I only have one receiver in my house and I use appletv's throughout the house. Will having directv give you access to directv now so I can stream some live today in my other rooms?

It is a separate service. You could sub to it and watch that service on tvs with the correct devices.

Stteam limitations will determine how many at one time.

Granted it may not include the channels you have now.

I wonder when it will or if it will become available on Roku , because that is what I use mostly for streaming.

Scott, I read on a tech site the other day( can't remember which one) that if you commit to 3 months service they maybe giving the customer a free Apple TV or an Amazon Fire Stick.
What have you heard and can you confirm anything on is?

 

[Ronnie-]

That has been reported in several places and in this thread. Seems to be fact.

Three months prepaid for an apple TV, one month for a fire TV stick.

Well looking at the calendar --- I am predicting DirecTV Now will be released either next week or the week following Thanksgiving. I am leaning towards the week after Thanksgiving.
