Comcast launches Peacock, Netflix and Apple TV+ bundle

Comcast is set to launch a streaming bundle combining its Peacock platform with Netflix and Apple TV+ for $15 per month in the US.

Called StreamSaver, it will be available next week to Comcast’s new and existing Xfinity Internet and TV customers.

The bundle includes a subscription to Netflix Standard with ads, Peacock Premium with ads, and Apple TV+, with Comcast saying it would deliver savings of over 30% or nearly $100 a year. Customers can also combine the bundled apps with Now TV for one all-in-monthly price of $30.  

News of StreamSaver comes just weeks after Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery announced they will launch a streaming bundle in the US this summer that includes Disney+, Hulu and Max. 

The bundle launch comes as consumers struggle to choose between multiple streaming platforms and look to cut the cost of spending on SVOD services. 

“StreamSaver is a home run for consumers who want top-tier entertainment and live sports, and for our world-class partners Peacock, Netflix and Apple who benefit from the reach and depth of our entertainment platforms and Xfinity’s marketing engine,” said Dave Watson, CEO of Connectivity and Platforms, Comcast. “StreamSaver also reinforces the value of our broadband products, offering customers new ways to save money on streaming entertainment via the nation’s best and most reliable network in and out of the home.”
