Just Right Package
In addition to having about 20 more channels than Live a Little, Just Right is the first DIRECTV Now plan to include your regional sports channels (eg, Fox Sports, Comcast Sports, Yes Network, etc). It also delivers a handful of national sports networks (see the next section for that list). So, if you're a big sports fan, the $50/mo price tag for 80+ channels should be right in your ballpark. Regarding picture quality, most sporting events these days are broadcast in the best HD available...and while DIRECTV Now does broadcast them in high def, it usually caps out at 720p (not 1080p). Further, if you'll be watching on your smartphone or tablet, the signal will automatically get downgraded to 480p. So, if you're used to 1080p while catching your favorite team, the sports channels here may be best served as a backup/mobile solution.
- Over 80 Channels
- Price will always be $50/mo
- No annual contract (cancel anytime)
- Free Amazon Fire TV w/ 1 mth pre-paid
- Access to local sports channels (if within area)

As mentioned above, Just Right is the first DIRECTV Now plan to include a hefty mix of national sports channels, namely: Big Ten Network, ESPNEWS, ESPNU, MLB Network, NBC Sports Network and SEC Network. Combined with your regional sports, this package is a pretty big win for just about any fan. There is one big downside though: no DVR option. So, if you like to maniacally replay controversial or game-breaking plays, you're out of luck with DIRECTV Now (since it's a streaming service without any hardware, there's no drive to save high resolution video). Rumor has it they are working on a DVR option, but don't expect it anytime soon. Now, aside from sports, there are about 15 new channels in Just Right; a few of the more popular include: CNBC World, Cooking Channel, GSN, IFC, OWN, Science, Travel Channel, UniMás and the Weather Channel. Finally, it's a bit quirky, but you'll actually lose a channel when you upgrade to this plan: Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. Not a big deal unless you're irrevocably addicted to Hallmark flicks :).
PERFECT FOR: the average sports fan, especially if there's a professional team in your area.
