It's because individual companies own the locals. NBC doesn't necessarily own every NBC affiliate.

Headed to the store right now. Can I sign up there and pick up my Apple TV?

I've said it like 5 times in this thread, one of those times is near the top of this page (or the top of the previous page)

To answer your question, yes

But I'm saying they market it in their marketing materials as NBC,ABC, and fox are included

Yep. That's what I did. Walked out in like 10 minutes. I called ahead and they had someone waiting for me and had the Apple TV on the desk.

Said I was their first and others were huddled around watching how the lady did it

I did it right when the doors opened at 9, the guy looked in his system and said I was the first to pick up from a store in the BR region

I'd imagine that's a complaint you'd need to file under the amazon fire tv department

Hmmmmmmmm, I'm very tempted to prepay the $35 for 3 months and get me an Apple TV. I've been looking for alternatives to Cox since our bill got jacked up yet AGAIN. Any idea how long the Apple TV deal is good for? Can you order online and go pick up at an AT&T store or do I need to go to the AT&T store and place the order there?

Also, if I can stream this through my AT&T cell phone with no impact to my data usage, would I be able to cast from my iPhone to my TV whatever I'm watching on the phone?

Anyone else getting an error message saying "Looks like your accounts maximum number of streams are already playing content"


Yep. However, this is the launch day so I'm pretty sure there are a few kinks to work out. Sling does the same thing after all this time. Can't wait to get home so I can cancel that shite!

Yea I've gotten a few times, especially from the guide section. The home area seems less glitchy.
Maybe it's cause it's new but I love this service. You can pause, rewind and fast forward live tv and VOD content including ESPN and others. That crushes slingtv.
The menu is so much better too and content appears to be in 5.1 sound whereas sling was not.

Cool. I figured there would be some glitches today, I'm not worried about it. Just glad I'm not alone here

I keep getting a video failed to load error after watching for a few minutes. Anyone else getting this. The Directv now website doesn't seem to like me, it keeps telling me it can't load.

Try resetting your device. There was a flew glitches when I was at the ATT store. The employee reset my phone and it works flawless now.
