Starting Friday for a limited Time, new customers can sign up for DirecTV Stream’s entertainment package for $49.99 for the first three months. The regular price is $69.99.

New customers can also subscribe to DirecTV Stream’s Choice package for $69.99 for three months, That tier usually costs $108.99.
