I can only assume that the letters I wrote to Directv explaining why it would be in their best interest to port the Superfan app to Android as quickly as possible are the reason this got done.

You're welcome.

Is Superfan the same as the NFL network or are those two separate subscriptions?

They are two very different things. NFL network is a channel owned and operated by the NFL that is included in all of Directv's standard programming packages (except for the cheapest one which is only like 50 channels).

Superfan is a feature you can add on top of NFL Sunday Ticket. Sunday Ticket allows you to watch any of the FOX and CBS games regardless of what region you live in (all of the 1pm and 4pm est games). Superfan gives you the HD feed of all of these games as well as NFL Game Mix which is a channel that has a 4x2 grid showing up to 8 simultaneous games at once and allows you to listen to any of the 8 games. Superfan also includes the Red Zone channel, NFL stats and scores that can be accessed on your receivers menu, and the ability to use the Superfan mobile app (as discussed here). It probably has some other minor features that I'm don't use.

Great info. I've always wondered how I could watch games aired in other regions. Maybe I'll get this next season. What's the Superfan package usually run?

The Sunday Ticket is $300 (save $30 if you sign up early) and the Superfan package is $100. Its nice to see them coming out with channels like the Red Zone and apps like this to make the price almost worth it. The first couple of years I paid the extra $100 just for HD and less then half the games were even broadcasted in HD. Needless to say im not a fan of DirecTV and I hope they get some real competition soon.

I have it this year and every game I've watched has been in HD. DirecTV's HD quality seems to be the best out there but I am definitely not a fan of their pricing... Wish they didn't have that contract with the NFL where they're the only ones that can show every game (besides the primetime ones)

Every game is now broadcasted in HD, that wasn't the case originally. Nobody in this country can currently touch the video or audio quality that DirecTV offers. The product that DTV offers is amazing, their pricing and customer service is a joke. In the past 2 seasons I haven't watched one non-HD game (why would I?), so why pay for the standard package. $400 to watch a season of HD football is just absurd.

I get nothing but DTV commercials any longer. Sunday seemed to work great. Now it's all the stupid "Thank you for 15 years" commercials. It's annoying enough as it is, but seeing as I work for DTV, it makes it even moreso.

But, is anyone else getting this where it's just the commercials?

Actually, if you compare to the price of tickets to take a family of four to a game in person, it is not that bad. Let alone season tickets.
