Add #AT&T to the list of companies that want to sell you TV over the internet: AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson says his online-only #DirecTV Now package will cost $35 a month and offer more than 100 channels when it launches next month. DirecTV Now will join Dish’s #Sling and #Sony ’s #Vue, which have been on the market for a while and may have around 800,000 subscribers so far. Next year, #Hulu, the service owned by #Disney, #21stCenturyFox and #Comcast, will launch its own live TV service. #Google, among others, is working on one as well. One selling point AT&T will have, for now, is that AT&T mobile subscribers who sign up for DirectTV Now will be able to watch on their devices without having the data usage count against their caps. The bulk of long-form video viewing happens on Wi-Fi networks, not mobile, but that’s still a differentiating feature.
