AT&T is renaming its streaming video service yet again to DirecTV Stream
According to the report of The Verge, AT&T will rename its video streaming services, including AT&T TV, AT&T TV Now, and AT&T Watch TV, to “DirecTV Stream” on August 26. It seems to be part of an effort to establish a new type of company video architecture, which was officially launched in the new company in early August.
Since 2019, AT&T has included a confusing set of product launches and innovation efforts used by both AT&T and DirecTV brands. The company’s real effort in a separate TV streaming service is called DirecTV Now.
You can use it with your broadband internet connection and it didn’t require a set-top box. This service was redesigned as AT&T TV Now but was eventually discontinued by AT&T TV, a service that brought live TV content online, but required a dedicated set-top box for Android TV, making it a sensible fan in the U of AT&T TV service.

Those new terms and services have made it appear that AT&T has decided to drive around the trailer with an AT&T brand via online video. But the company still has DirectTV, its traditional satellite TV service.
Now it seems that the decision has been made to use this product with the maturity of video services, thus finally clearing away any confusion surrounding which company is responsible for delivering content to your home. Starting August 26, if you get TV via satellite, it’s DirecTV, and if you get it online (with a dedicated or free set-top box), it will be DirecTV Stream.
It is too early to say whether the new company will adjust any of its packages or pricing to make it more competitive, but there is certainly no shortage of people who want to watch live TV without a cable or satellite. YouTube TV, FuboTV, Hulu + and Live TV, and Sling TV are just some of the live TV streaming services you can find nationwide.
At the same time, Locast becomes a more attractive option for people looking for an easy way to view their local over-the-air (OTA) channels without having to purchase, install, and make an over-the-air (OTA) antenna or purchase an OTA receiver.
