That’s the way it looks to me the closer I examine the transaction. Just last month the telco announced that it forged a partnershipwith former News Corp COO Peter Chernin, valued at $500M, to either buy or build a so-called over-the-top (Ott) online video service. That’s now potentially the biggest — and perhaps the only meaningful — new opportunity for At&T if it completes its $49.5B acquisition of DirecTV. The satellite company’s CEO Michael White told analysts this week that Ott and mobile video could be ”big win-wins not only for us and our customers but also for our programming partners.” Related: Peter Chernin Teams With At&T In $500M Effort To Create Online Video Service It’s more than an opportunity — it’s a necessity for the two companies.
