DirecTV Expands HD Channel Lineup
14 Comments
DirecTV said Monday it had expanded its channel lineup to 72 high-definition channels for those subscribed to all of its premium lineup, part of an effort to offer customers 100 channels in HD by the end of this year. Even without the premium HD channels, of which there are about a dozen, the company's lineup far exceeds that of any other provider at the moment.
The standard HD package costs $9.99 per month, and includes those HD channels that are tied to their particular package. For an additional $4.99 monthly, the company would give access to all non-premium HD channels in its lineup. All HD packages also include local channels in HD where available, the company said.
