Satellite television provider DirecTV Inc on Thursday said it has begun service to its four millionth subscriber, placing its service in one out of every 25 U.S. households with a TV set. DirecTV, a unit of HUGHES ELECTRONICS CORP, launched the service in 1994, and since that time has signed up over one million subscribers a year. Year-to-date in 1998, subscribers are up nearly 30 percent over 1997. The service has sold over 120 million pay-per-view movies and special events, broadcast over 200,000 hours of professional and collegiate sporting events, earned a customer satisfaction rating over 90 percent and kept its monthly disconnects, or churn rate, at around 1%.
