Get ready for yet another streaming bundle: Comcast is launching a new $15 per month subscription that combines Netflix, Apple TV Plus, and Peacock. The “StreamSaver” bundle will be available to Xfinity Internet and TV customers on May 29th — and it offers monthly savings of around $8.
If you do subscribe, expect to sit through some commercials, as the bundle includes Netflix’s ad-supported plan ($6.99 / month), Peacock’s ad-supported Premium plan ($5.99 / month), and Apple TV Plus, which is ad-free by default ($9.99 / month). Variety first reported on rumors of the bundle last week.
Comcast is also bundling its bundle with its $20 per month Now TV service, which offers over 40 live TV channels and comes with a Peacock Premium subscription. You can subscribe to the streaming bundle and Now TV for a combined price of $30 per month when the bundle launches on the 29th.
Similarly, last December, Verizon introduced a streaming bundle with Netflix and Max for $10 per month with ads. Disney Plus, Hulu, and Max have even teamed up to cut out the middleman — like Comcast or Verizon — and launch a not-yet-priced streaming bundle of their own this summer.
As streaming prices continue to trek upward, bundles will likely become crucial in keeping people subscribed.
