It's a scam way to add a hidden charge. If they didn't charge for the box, they'd up the price of the TV packages.

I paid roughly that and when it starting having problems DIRECTV tried to charge me $99 to come look at it. I don’t even own it. Got so mad I cut the cord, and switched to hulu ... best idea ever $40 a month vs the $150 I was paying. Best move ever!

Costs as much as a LATimes subscription. Anyways I ordered a Tablo which is an over the air DVR.
