Not really sure where this even belongs

Anybody using the DirectvNow service and your thoughts on it? Curious if my results have been the same as others

And the price is about to go way up!

New subs will pay $60 starting January 9th

In case you missed the sticky thread at the top, it has several users discussing:

DIRECTV NOW LAUNCH

So, at the end of the day, can we say that the only real reason DirecTV released DirecTV Now is to reach those who (for whatever reason) can't get sat?

We know it's not for cord-cutters, and all other restrictions make conventional sat sub a reasonable deal.

I had high hopes for this new service, but am now wondering the point of it all.

Unless they pay me to sell it, or give me a showroom demo.

I'm sure that's part of the reason but they also didn't want to lose customers to PlayStation Vue and Sling TV.
