With the latest DirecTV genre pack streaming additions, you can finally curate your nightmare box without paying for three kinds of home and garden channels you will never watch.

DirecTV hopes these genre pack streaming additions will act as a shiny distraction from the broader corporate tug-of-war happening behind the scenes in the pay-TV industry.
