The Revolution is Here: AT&T Offers 3 Ways to Stream Premium Video ContentNEW YORK, Nov. 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The future of TV is NOW. On Nov. 30, AT&T1 begins offering 3 video streaming services – DIRECTV NOW, FreeVIEW and Fullscreen. It's your favorite TV networks and made-for-digital video content delivered with more choice and flexibility than ever. This is rules-free TV for anyone in the U.S. who wants to stream shows and movies anytime, anywhere.

"We're extending our entertainment portfolio for those who value premium content but also want more TV freedom suited for their lifestyle, whether watching at home or on their mobile devices. This is TV your way," said John Stankey, CEO, AT&T Entertainment Group. "Our new customer-centric offers show that mobility and entertainment are better together," added Stankey. Sign up online for DIRECTV NOW or Fullscreen. Within minutes, you have the power to stream content over a U.S. internet connection on a variety of devices. No set-top-boxes, satellite dishes, annual contracts or credit checks required. And, if you're an AT&T Mobility customer, DIRECTV will pick up the tab for data to help you achieve all your binge-worthy goals. Data Free TV means you won't use your AT&T mobile data for watching DIRECTV NOW or FreeVIEW in the App. Fullscreen will also cover your data for streaming in the Fullscreen App on the AT&T mobile network.2 DIRECTV NOW Experience any of our packages free for 7 days when you sign up at www.directvnow.com and download the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
