DirecTV is in talks with Walt Disney Co to license the rights to offer Disneys broadcast and cable channels as part of an Internet-based product, mirroring a first-of-its kind agreement that Disney and satellite rival Dish Network announced earlier this week. The deal and terms are not unexpected as the Dish contract was the most recent in the Disney timeline to expire, DirecTV spokesman Darris Gringeri said on Wednesday. The DirecTV contract is up next and were in the process of working with Disney on a similar long-term agreement of our own. A Disney spokesman declined to comment.
