Sling Media To Stream NFL Games For DirecTV


Place-shifting TV provider Sling Media has tied up with DirecTV (NYSE: DTV) to give the satellite company’s users (not SlingBox users) access to National Football League games, NTV reported. Online streams of NFL games will be available every Sunday...this is DirecTV’s Supercast streaming service, and is available to Directv NFL Sunday Ticket subscribers who have the SuperFan service (Directv’s HD service for all NFL games). Interestingly, this mean Sling is extending from being a hardware/software consumer service to being a B2B service provider to a player like DirecTV, without the hardware part.
