DirecTV has an exclusive arrangement with the NFL for the Sunday Ticket. This is a pay service that allows subscribers access to up to 14 games each week of the NFL season. DirecTV began offering a variation to New York City residents last season and will expand the offer nationwide this year.
Eligibility is limited to those who are not able to receive a DirecTV satellite signal. The cost per season is $350. The content is delivered via the Internet. A spokesman for DirecTV quoted in USA Today indicated that the games would be streamed in HD 720p. Non-subscribers may order service during the week prior to Week 1 of the season. When ordering, customers must verify that they cannot receive a signal.
