Netflix Reveals Downloads for On the Go Watching; DirecTV Now Launches
Which deal do you prefer?
Netflix has offered up a new solution that will allow subscribers to download movies and watch them on the go without an internet connection at no additional cost. Basically how it works is you select the stuff you want to watch, download them while still connected to the internet, then you can watch those programs when you are on an airplane or subway where internet isn’t as available.
The new feature is available for all Netflix plans and works for both iOS and Android devices.

In related news, DirecTV Now has officially launched. The new streaming service from AT&T is an over-the-net streaming service with packages that start at $35 for 100 channels. A slew of TV networks are available and the services will be made available to those who have connected TVs like Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV. The service uses your mobile and broadband services, however, those with AT&T wireless plans won’t have costs brought on by DirecTV Now.
DirecTV Now does NOT require set-top boxes or long-term commitments to work.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
