Although there are quite a number of satellite service providers out there, DirecTV seems to have more customer base and popularity, thanks to the modern technologies it introduces on a regular basis. With DirecTV, you not only get channels in HD quality but also a number of additional features like facility for recording multiple programs, viewing program details, etc. After DirecTV was acquired by AT&T, a number of technological advancements have been added to the platform. These features are available with all pages ranging from DirecTV Family package to DirecTV Choice package.

One of the latest technologies added to DirecTV is RVU. This is a built-in feature, with which you can enjoy HD DVR functionality and DirecTV services without a receiver when you use it as an extra TV in your Genie HD DVR setup. If you are not using DirecTV Ready TV, you will need to use Genie Mini in order to access Genie HD DVR.
