How much is Stream with DIRECTV per month?
The service has four main packages: ENTERTAINMENT ($84.99/mo., 90+ channels), CHOICE™ ($89.99/mo., 125+ channels), ULTIMATE ($119.99/mo., 160+ channels), and PREMIER™ ($164.99/mo., 185+ channels).
ENTERTAINMENT and CHOICE cost about the same as packages from other live TV streaming services like YouTube TV and Hulu + Live TV—services we recommend over Stream with DIRECTV.
However, if you’re set on DIRECTV, we recommend CHOICE for most users. With 125+ entertainment, kids, lifestyle, news, and sports channels, it’ll satisfy singles/couples, families, and—with its included regional sports networks (RSNs)—sports fans.
If you can afford the hefty price tag, PREMIER has every channel DIRECTV carries—and it includes Max™, Paramount+ with SHOWTIME®, STARZ®, and CINEMAX®. It’s a TV fan’s dream package.
For Spanish speakers, Stream with DIRECTV offers ÓPTIMO MÁS ($79.99 a month, 200+ channels), which has primarily Spanish-language channels.
All packages are subject to an Advanced Service Fee of $15 monthly (similar to the Advanced Receiver Fee satellite-based DIRECTV charges). No other live TV streaming service has a fee like this.
You should also know that Stream with DIRECTV packages with regional sports networks (RSNs)—that’s CHOICE, ULTIMATE, and PREMIER—come with an additional fee of up to $17.99 monthly. The amount depends on your location.
All plans include unlimited cloud DVR, 10 simultaneous streams on your home network, and three mobile streams.
