AT&T's new $35 streaming TV package is the best deal yet for cord-cutters
Getting rid of cable is an enticing prospect. Who doesn't want to drop a monthly $100-plus bill? And all those commercials! Good grief.
What's the alternative? You could pay for internet, and then pay for services like Hulu, Netflix, HBO, and Amazon. Those services quickly add up in price, and monthly internet costs are high.

There's another option: streaming television over the internet - legally - through services like Sling TV and PlayStation Vue. These services offer channel lineups that are similar to those you already have through cable packages, but they cost much less and run on devices you already own.
AT&T just announced its own service of this kind: It's called DirecTV Now, and it's the best deal by far. Here's how it stacks up against the competition.
