re: AT&T U-Verse or Direct TV

if you dont mind me throwing in my two cents, ill give you my honest opinion since i work in that business. first off- i own a lot of AT&T stock, and now DIRECTV and AT&T are the same company so im happy with whatever decision you make. lol

from my meetings with AT&T peeps, they have told me that AT&T is dedicating all their bandwidth to internet with the gigapower rollout and slowly moving all TV over to DIRECTV since Uverse TV is IP based. thats why when you go to a wireless store, they are buying out contracts to switch uverse tv customers over to directv. AT&T makes a lot more money off a DTV customer than a Uverse TV customer.


the directv bundle deal is the best deal in the biz right now. they just released a new Genie that will be 4k ready when the programming comes out. they will be the first to launch 4k and they have the sunday ticket exclusive for the next 7 years.

plus if you are a wireless customer with AT&T, you get $10 off your DTV bill for as long as you keep both.


both have great equipment, wireless boxes, etc. i will tell you that AT&T is putting all of there current and future resources into the DTV product, so IMO that would make the decision easy for me


also, i love my uverse internet. i have gigapower and have never had an issue.
