as long as you get the $50 package or more, you get the regional sports channels. You are thinking DirectTV, which is not DirectTV Now.
Again...I'm paying $93 for the internet and the $60 package for the Direct TV Now... That's $153 per month...I pay $192 right now for the Verizion Fios Triple-Play. I'm saving money.
I have not set it up yet, but will be soon. I have to talk to someone with DirectTV Now because I may save even more because I have an AT&T Unlimited Cell Account. I believe they have a deal, since AT&T owns DirectTV.
