As it turns a year old, AT&T’s streaming service hits a milestone

The promotions have continued since then. Currently, customers who prepay for four months get a free Apple TV 4K in return. One month of prepay earns customers a Roku streaming stick. And new customers can get $25 off their first month of service in accordance with DIRECTV NOW’s one year anniversary.

"To reach 1 million subscribers is an important benchmark for any OTT video service, but to go from zero to 1 million subscribers so quickly is quite an achievement," said Brett Sappington, senior director of research for Dallas-based Parks Associates, in a release from AT&T.
