It differs slightly from the DIRECTV STREAM service in that it protects from price hikes, includes more channels, and has an elevated customer service experience.

DIRECTV via Internet starts at $69.99 / month for their Entertainment package. You can upgrade to their Choice package, which begins at $84.99 / month, that includes your local RSN and HBO Max for three months. They also have an Ultimate ($114.99) for 130 channels and Premier ($159.99) for 140 channels. You can also get the Spanish Optimo Mas package, which is priced at ($74.99). For all packages, there are no extra RSN fees or Broadcast TV fees, which you may find with Fubo or Sling.

The service includes an Unlimited DVR on all packages and unlimited simultaneous at-home streams.
