Netflix is way more flexible about bandwidth and adapting video quality on the fly than Direct TV On Demand, if that’s the technology they plan to use. I don’t know about Sling TV, apparently I don’t have very many customers using it.
I have UVerse at my house, I expect at some point they will tell me that my current STB is no longer supported and I have to get some Direct TV box. That’s the other thing, people seem to sign up for whatever has an app already installed on their smart TV or satellite receiver. I’m not sure how AT&T intends to sell OTT video streaming with no STB, unless they get Samsung to put an app in their smart TVs. I don’t think people are ready to replace their 60 inch TV with an iPad.

You can already watch directv live over the internet using their App, if you are a subscriber.
