DirecTVNow - anyone interested?

Isn't Root Sports owned by AT&T? I wonder why it isn't on DirecTV Now.

Is Root Sports on PlayStation Vue? I haven't made the switch because I didn't think Root Sports was available on any of these streaming services.

 

I saw the apple tv package when you prepay for 3 months but didnt see the additional 3 months free.

 

No. Root isn't on any streaming service.

 

True, but sometimes I'm not at home to watch the games on sunday. And I can stream the FOX games on my iPad, as well as NBC, but CBS still eludes me.

 

Which really sucks. Regional sports networks from Fox AND Comcast are all streaming online, and we've had both of those here in this city within the last handful of years. These dinosaurs need to get onboard already.

 

I have 6 months free of this service. Not sure how much I'll use it though.

 

my mistake. got confused about something else i read.

 

I subscribe to Playstation Vue but decided to try out DirecTVNow to get the Apple TV at basically $105 and try out DIRECTVNOW for three months. If I don't like it luckily Vue has an APTV4 app.

Just walk into any corporate at&t store to sign up and walk out with the apple tv instead of waiting.

So far so good. Quality is about as good as Vue, and the interface is pretty sleek but I am liking PS Vue's DVR feature.

PS Vue needs to change their name. Too many people think you need a playstation to get it

 

can you not dvr sports? i'm trying to record the game tomorrow, but i don't have the option

 

This would easily be something I would do if Comcast wasn't the only source of internet. The issue is, with comcast being that, and their bandwidth limits, I would be so screwed here. If only there was more competition in that marketplace.

 

I was able to set the DVR to record the ESPN stream via the iPhone app.

 

hmm. able to record it on espn, but not abc. guess it's an abc deal. thanks

 

you get 11 hours of DVR i believe.

 

yea, i saw the option to dvr stuff on other channels, but not abc for some reason.

 

whether you have access to ABC depends on what video hub you are watching from (city). DTV NOW doesn't have access to every local affiliate . I'm not sure how that works for DVR.
