NFL Network is not currently available. They said they are working on the rights and will add it soon. Same for cloud DVR
You would think since they have the right to the NFL they would have at least NFL Network
Interesting. Is there on demand at all? That might suffice until DVR is implemented.
It's a tough call because I'd want to sign up for 3 months to get the Apple TV but at the same time, it's a risk since you don't know when CBS, DVR, or NFL is coming.
Not a bad lineup. If this is available via iTunes in-app purchase, it would be killer! I would load up on discounted iTunes gift cards just for this.
CBS sent me a month free trial I just signed up for on their all access. So I could pair that with this for a month if desired.
It doesn't look like they show NFL at all, or DVR service like Vue. CBS you can always just add the cbs app as a stand alone. In my market that includes live streaming. Would be interested in seeing which markets get the other locals.
They would still show NFL on Fox and ESPN I would think. Maybe I'm missing something there.
I got redzone packaged with my vue bundle right now. So if I did switch, it would be after the season is over. And hopefully some of these promos are still running.
Directv is listed in the Single Sign-On with Sling and a some others. Still new but I think we will know in a few days.
Great job with the channel list. The 100 channels for $35 looks like a winner to me. That's every channel plus a couple that I have now with regular Directv.
Figure out NFL Network and CBS along with DVR and I think I can do it.
Curious though. I have unlimited data on ATT Cell plan because I have DIRECTV. Wonder if they'd honor that if I switched to Now?

That last sentence is what I want to know about too. We have the same data deal. I'd love to dump the dish. They just dropped a new fiber pipe and box in the neighbors yard for our area and it's supposed to be live sometime next month. Internet costs would go up a bit, but TV would come down about $70 a month with this.
I'll never switch my internet again to ATT. Worst crap I've ever had. Service reps were awful. I dumped it half way through my contract and just paid the fee.
They send me emails all the time about a big discount for bringing it back. I just chuckle.
Don't have that issue here. It's likely your neighborhood infrastructure. They dropped the first Uverse pipe in 2005, but we stayed with DIRECTV for TV services due to Sunday Ticket. Internet and phone have been rock solid. We pull 42-45 Mbps consistently. Like I said, they just dropped fiber and the node is in the neighbors yard which is about 40 feet from the point of entry to our house. Our speed will be rediculous.
Saw today where DTV now launch won't include login access stand alone apps. That wouldn't matter except ESPN3 is a big deal for me. Hopefully that's coming as well.
