DirecTV Will No Longer Offer Satellite Subscriptions For New Customers as a Trial Run in Some Markets
DirecTV will no longer offer satellite subscriptions for new customers as a trial run in some markets.
Said the company in a statement: “In select markets this limited-time trial will increase awareness and adoption of our satellite-free streaming service, which has quickly become the preferred solution for new consumer customers.” Cord Cutters News wrote that “it seems to be mostly large cities with robust high-speed internet access are the primary focus for the streaming-only model. Rural areas with limited broadband availability may still have access to satellite service for new customers, though the company encourages even these users to explore streaming options where feasible.”
