Keeping abreast of the latest happenings and events from around the world is a smart habit. The more informed you are, the better is the overall quality of your life. Yes, that is how it works most of the time!
And what would be a better medium to stay on top of local, national and international news as well as financial developments and business trends, than a satellite TV service? One which is available everywhere in the U.S. and does not put you through the quandary of not getting what you prefer only because you have chosen to live away from the urban hubbub.
There are only a few satellite TV providers in the U.S. market, and with cutting-edge competition AT&T DIRECTV ranks #1 on multiple fronts—the satellite TV service boasts the most number of subscribers at over 13 million, has been rated higher than cable TV in customer satisfaction for nearly two decades, and carries an extensive channel lineup alongside hard-to-beat service features and perks.
The DIRECTV channel lineup gets you a great mix of America’s favorite networks—local, popular, and premium—sports, lifestyle, family entertainment, kids programming etc.—it is all included! And speaking of news, the satellite service gets you access to megalithic networks like CNN, BBC World News, FOX News Channel, MSNBC, and CNBC. If you wish to expand the scope of your choice further, DIRECTV lets you do so with FREE access to up to 65,000 On Demand titles.
That is why for residents of non-urban America in particular, DIRECTV is a savior—there to your rescue when finding competitively priced quality TV options becomes a nightmare.
CNBC stands for Consumer News and Business Channel—but that name is not actively used anymore. This business news channel was launched about 31 years ago, and at present comes under the ownership of NBCUniversal News Group.
CNBC went through numerous changes and disruptions before it grew into what it is today. From cable carriage difficulties and serious financial issues to fighting competition posed by the well-established Financial News Network (FNN). But, things turned around when in 1991 the network acquired FNN and merged the running of the two operations. The merger boosted CNBC distribution to over 40 million homes from 17. Today, the network reaches an impressive 93 million U.S. households that hold a pay-tv subscription, and in addition to the domestic U.S. feed, many localized versions of CNBC also operate in Asia and Europe.
Just as the CNBC channel is a complete package to help you stay on top of all financial and business news, DIRECTV gives you an all-round service that goes way beyond its extensive channel lineup, and a huge on-demand library. 4K UHD programming, maximum sports content, GENIE HD DVR, and much more. Perhaps the best perk is TV on the go with DIRECTV app that does not rely on the internet as long as you get the 99% reliable signal! In sum, DIRECTV provides subscribers a lot more than just a basic connection to run their TV sets, with the potential to revolutionize your in-home TV entertainment regime.
And to sweeten the deal, CNBC is included in all DIRECTV packages! What’s more, CNBC World is also part of the lineup with DIRECTV CHOICE™ and above.
