Video On Demand Expiration Dates No Longer Available

Up until 1-2 months ago, I could see the "Available Until..." date for any Video On Demand program (movie or TV show) on any channel. (It appear when you press "Info" button on any On Demand program.)

This information no longer appears.

I have a lot of programming on my DVR, and I would often use the Free On Demand Expiration Date to determine what to clear from my DVR (or not to "Keep") if DVR gets full.

I could always watch program On Demand at a later date if available months into the future. (Or re-record to DVR if it airs on linear TV.) Without this info, I have no idea how long a movie or TV program will be available Free On Demand in case I miss recording to DVR.

Is there a reason the expiration date has been removed from On Demand programming, and can get this information elsewhere? (I have regular DirecTV genie, not DirecTV Stream.)

Thank you in advance. I searched this forum for other similar posts but couldn't find one.

shannon02,

Do you have Directv Satellite or Streaming if you don't mind me asking?

I have Satellite with a Genie. Wondering if our equipment is different it may make a difference(?)
