Is a phone line required to get on demand shows with directv? Is it required for anything with directv. We use our cell phones only and don't have a landline
I'm pretty sure you'll need a telephone line to get on demand. Their movies are $4.99 and since I can go to Redbox for $1.20 at Sweetbay I never considered watching a PPV movie from Directv. I've had Directv for six years and I have seen lists of the free on-demand movies but I've either already seen them or didn't want to see them, so a phone line has never been something I've considered before. That's one area that Comcast probably has over Directv.
