AT&T has announced a new service to compete with such video-on-demand offerings as Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime. The service is aimed at its U-verse customers, offering unlimited access to AT&T’s library of some 1,500 movies from a TV, computer or wireless device. It will cost $5 a month, a price that is competitive with, if not undercutting, its rivals. Late last year, Amazon began testing a new monthly option for its Prime video-streaming service at $7.99 per month. Netflix’s streaming video service also clocks in at $7.99 per month.
