[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2929726, member: 5412"] Thought I might get serious about looking at this service, but found this: "AT&T has secured licenses for ABC, NBC, and Fox in owned-and-operated markets, which means places where the broadcast network owns the local affiliate station. So if you live in Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, or New York City, you’re going to get your local channels. But if you’re in a part of the country that doesn’t have an owned-and-operated station, you won’t be able to watch live TV on ABC, NBC, or Fox. Instead, DirecTV Now is offering video on-demand (VOD) access to programs the next day." Why in hell would I in Oklahoma want to watch national news the next day? We are direct TV customers already as well as AT&T. We don't watch anything live. We record almost everything to play back later and blow through commercials. I don't see how one can record and play back with the new service. [/QUOTE]
