AT&T U-verse TV Adds ShortsHD and New International Channels
ShortsHD Makes U.S. Debut on AT&T U-verse; Brings U-verse TV Lineup to 110 HD Channels in Every U-verse TV Market.
AT&T* announced several additions to the AT&T U-verseSM TV channel lineup, including international programming options for Italian and Arabic viewers and ShortsHD, the short movie channel, which makes its U.S. debut on U-verse TV.
“We continue to expand our U-verse TV channel lineup to include more of the content that our customers want,” said Dan York, executive vice president of content and programming, AT&T Converged Services. “U-verse TV is about going above and beyond a standard channel lineup to give you more diverse programming options. These new channels help us with important strategic content initiatives and are great additions for our U-verse TV customers.”
The new channels that are now available for U-verse TV customers include:
ShortsHD , which showcases short movies in a range of genres, including comedy, action, horror, drama and more. AT&T is the first U.S. provider to offer ShortsHD, which is available in the HD Premium Tier for an additional $5 a month on channel 1789.
Arabic Radio & Television, an Arabic channel featuring live sporting events, dramas, news, variety, entertainment, movies, and programming on national events, festivals and religious celebrations from around the Arab world. Available a la carte for an additional $13 a month on channel 3732.
RAITALIA, an Italian channel which promotes the culture of Italy through a unique blend of festivals, concerts, Italian movies, soccer games, children's programming, game shows, documentaries and news. Available a la carte for an additional $13 a month on channel 3802.
With ShortsHD and other recent channel additions, U-verse TV customers enjoy access to an extensive HD channel lineup with 110 or more HD channels — exceeding the HD channel lineups offered by the local cable providers in every U-verse TV market.
U-verse TV customers can also choose from a wide variety of in-language programming options, including packages for Spanish, Filipino, Japanese, French, Polish, Russian, Vietnamese, Korean and South Asian viewers.
AT&T U-verse TV is the only 100 percent Internet Protocol-based television (IPTV) service offered by a national service provider, making AT&T U-verse one of the most dynamic and feature-rich services available today. AT&T U-verse TV ranked “Highest in Residential Television Service Satisfaction in the North Central, South, and West Regions,” according to the J.D.
