Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

AT&T signed its original distribution agreement with Starz in 2006. The telco signed a renewal with the premium programmer in March 2011, when it first became a TV Everywhere affiliate.

The latest deal encompasses 19 Starz Entertainment premium channels and feeds, including all 14 distinct Starz and Encore channels (including Encore Español), West Coast feeds of the flagship Starz and Encore channels, plus IndiePlex, RetroPlex and the recently launched MoviePlex.
