Right! Even if you do not maintain your subscription after three months, you got a great deal on a great streamer. BUT, let's talk about the service for a minute. Never one of the a la carte crowd. I decided to take DirecTV Now for a ride to get an Apple TV. I’m in Day 3. I’m using a Fire TV stick. Amazon says my gen 1 Fire TVs are not compatible. Most of the day, quality is very good, but, during prime time, there is insufferable buffering. I guess that is part of being part of a very popular live beta. Tech support is worse than terrible. Chat has never been available. Forum support is poor. But I expect all of these situations to improve and there is lots to like. You have to start with the value of the program — $35 for 109 channels is very reasonable. These are all ‘real’ channels — no digital music or public access. Most of the channels are live and on demand. I don’t know what the actual quality of the image is, but it looks very good on my 720p 43″ television. No DVR yet, but trick play works on most channels. DirecTV Now is no substitute for a premium provider, but DTVn plus an antenna are … or will be once the bugs are worked out.
