“DirecTV always strives to offer the content our customers want most, wherever, whenever, and using whatever device – but also at a strong value they can really appreciate,” said Rob Thun, DirecTV Chief Content Officer in a statement. “As more of our customers gain interest in top streaming services, and we add streaming services from programmers like Warner Bros. Discovery whose linear channels we also offer, we can help our programming partners expand their reach while also offering our customers similar preferred discounts.”

DirecTV users can subscribe to Discovery+ and receive a $2 monthly discount on their DirecTV or DirecTV Stream service. They can purchase the ad-lite tier for $4.99 per month. They can access Discovery+ through their usual DirecTV or streaming interface.
