Streaming Limit
Is there a limit to the number of channels (such as Fox News Channel) that I can have running at one time at home. Quite often I get a notice that I am running too man streams. I can tune other channels, but not Fox.

Yes. I do believe FOX has an independent channel limit of something like 5.

Some networks only allow you to have three streams at the same time. This includes both watching in your home or on the go. These networks include: Fox channels: Big Ten Network, Fox News, Fox Business, FS1, FS2, Fox Deportes and Fox local channels.

For grandfathered DirectTV Now subscribers, they now toss in the 3rd stream for "free".

Some of those plans were not eligible @Jrandomuser (i don't know about which rules applied), and right now there are a couple of posts on Reddit about that.

Very odd - at least amongst "original" subscribers, I'm not aware of anything special about my account and I've seen reports from a couple of other grandfathered subscribers that they got it also. You should contact Support and see what's up.
