Fees

Are you already subscribed to DirecTV Via Internet? Then yes you have a contract.

No - I’m still deciding what to do.

Several neighbors purchased the box with a voice remote to avoid the monthly fee.  I think they paid $50 via eBay.

no issues so far and they say their picture quality is better than cable.

I have had a gemini for WAY longer than 24 months and when I asked if I could own my equipment if I went with the streaming service? I was told no on several request. If I went streaming without their equipment I would be unable to record or have  a list to keep recordings. I have been with Directv 29 years, they started in 1994 and I started as a customer in 1995. If you can tell me who I  need to talk to with Directv to  get the directv app on my roku stick without paying for equipment, I would appreciate it.

Could you give me a little more info about using my voice remote to access directv?

I have an app on my tv. It allows me to watch the same channels that I pay for in the entertainment pkg

I asked that and was told that since I am a sat. customer I would have to receive the stream through the box. The only thing I could think of was to quit Directv for a couple of months and then buy the streaming service as a new customer.

What programming would I receive with directv streaming? I mean, about how many current directv sat channels would be available on the streaming?

Thanks
