AT&T will raise the price of its Go Big DirecTV Now package from the special, introductory rate of $35 per month to the standard $60 per month price early next month. "Any current DirecTV Now customers, and those who sign up before the promotion ends, will stay at the special price of $35 for 'Go Big' package," said the company in a statement provided to the Dallas Business Journal. "Customers who sign up for this offer will continue to enjoy this special price for as long as they keep the package, subject only to future reasonable programming price increases applicable to all packages."

Not worth it...

I signed up and paid for the 3-month subscription, and got a free 4th Gen. Apple TV which is really nice. Unfortunately, the service itself is utterly horrible and buggy - whether via the iOS App, Apple TV App or via a web browser. Constant disconnects, "content unavailable" messages and a whole host of other issues make it unworthy of even the $35/mo. price tag. I certainly will not be renewing after the 3-month period. It's such a shame too, I really had high hopes for this service. I even have U-Verse Gigapower internet at home, so I certainly have a quick connection. Oh well, hopefully another service provider will come out with something more stable and/or AT&T fixes these irritating issues for future subscribers.
