DirecTV Now Goes 'Gangbusters,' And AT&T Stops The Bleeding

Before news broke Friday that AT&T has stopped bleeding TV customers, Parks Associates tried to put a finger on what sort of subscriber numbers for the company’s new streaming TV service would warrant such a disclosure.

“If it goes gangbusters and they end up with over 100,000, 200,000, 300,000 – if they end up with those kinds of figures – I think there’s a decent possibility they announce specific numbers,” Parks Associates told the Dallas Business Journal.
