DIRECTV Services DIRECTV offers a number of services to its subscribers, including: Programming DIRECTV offers more than 265 channels of satellite TV programming. These are sold in blocks of channels known as packages. Prices for their packages start at $29.99 a month for 45 channels, and go up to $57.99 a month for 265 channels which includes 31 movies channels and 73 XM satellite radio channels. Unlike DISH Network, DIRECTV includes your local stations (ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, and The CW) when you purchase one of their packages. For more information on what's included in each package, click on the link below. Pay-Per-View Pay-per-view is a service that lets you purchase a recently-released movie, or a special event like boxing, and have it delivered directly to your DIRECTV receiver. You can do this by phone or by using your remote control. The cost for a movie is about what you'd pay for a movie at a video store, and it saves you the hassle of picking it up and returning it. Music Most of DIRECTV's programming packages include commercial-free XM satellite TV radio. These channels broadcast every imaginable type of music from rock-and-roll, rap, and rhythm and blues, to country, classical, and Christian music. You name it, XM satellite radio has it.
