DIRECTV Streaming VS. Streaming Service

DIRECTV Streaming delivers the best of Live TV and on-demand shows, movies, local news, and sports with no annual contract required. But what makes DIRCTV Stream any different than the countless other streaming services, such as Hulu Live, Sling TV, YouTube TV or Fubo? We’ve researched five ways DIRECTV beats the competition.

The most regional sports networks of any streaming service.

DIRECTV Stream has more regional sports available than Hulu Live, Sling TV, YouTube TV or Fubo. All customers with Choice package level of programming or better with DIRECTV Stream, are sure to regional sports when they are available, which is based on the customer’s zip code.

Unlimited hours of Cloud DVR storage

DIRECTV Stream lets your record your favorite shows to the cloud, and for an additional $10/mo DIRECTV customers offer customer unlimited recording, so you can save and access from anywhere as many of your favorite shows, movies, sports, and unlimited video content. Hulu Live does offer a version of unlimited cloud DVR, while YouTube TV, Sling TV, or Fubo does not.

Unlimited simultaneous DVR recordings included

Unlike Hulu Live, DIRECTV lets you DVR multiple shows simultaneously, as many as you want. This feature is included in their Unlimited Cloud DVR service. This is not available with any other streaming service we’ve compared so far.

Enjoy streaming on the app—anytime, anywhere

Take your DIRECTV Stream to go, at any hour of the day or night, with the streaming app. This feature is unlimited on your home network, and limited to 3 concurrent out-of-home streams. Most streaming services have an app including Hulu, YouTube, Sling, and Fubo, but not like DIRECTV.

Stream on unlimited devices at once in your home

By unlimited in your home, DIRECTV means that as long as your the device is connected to your home network, you can have as many devices streaming at once as you desire, all without any additional fees. Hulu Live, and YouTube TV offers this but for an additional fee. Sling TV and Fubo limit the amount of devices on your home network.
