Less than two weeks after AT&T acquired Direct TV, it’s luring new customers with a heavily discounted, $200 per month plan that bundles TV, Internet and phone service.

Smaller cable companies and some consumer advocates are not happy, but some analysts say this new offer is a good deal.

Here & Now‘s Robin Young speaks with Ina Fried of Re/code about the deal.
