Sizzling off the information of Disney and Warner’s new tremendous bundle comes one other leisure bundle with a number of providers to select from, all for a reduced worth.
Comcast has confirmed (by way of Selection) that it will likely be launching the brand new StreamSaver bundle later this month, which is able to come with Netflix, Peacock and Apple TV+. The information was revealed at MoffettNathanson’s 2024 Media, Web and Communications Convention in New York by Comcast Chief, Brian Roberts.
Whereas no pricing info was disclosed, Roberts mentioned that the bundle will “come at a vastly lowered worth to something accessible at this time”. Nonetheless, it gained’t be accessible to everybody – you’ll must be signed up for a broadband, TV or cell bundle from Comcast to take benefit. That additionally implies that for now, it’s unique to the US.
This seems to be a direct competitor to the Disney+, Hulu and Max bundle that was confirmed final week – as soon as once more solidifying that after years of streaming wars, we’re slowly transferring again in the direction of a extra conventional cable TV-style mannequin.
We don’t but know what variations of the streaming platforms will likely be included within the bundle, as each Peacock and Netflix provide completely different tiers for subscribers. Right here’s the beginning costs of all of the providers on the time of writing:
- Netflix Primary with Adverts: $6.99 per 30 days
- Apple TV+: $9.99 per 30 days
- Peacock Premium: $5.99 per 30 days (set to extend to $7.99 per 30 days in July)
Collectively, the providers value $22.97 per 30 days. Sometimes, a majority of these bundles throw in a single service without cost, so we might see Comcast charging simply over $15 per 30 days for all three of those providers – if it opts for the most cost effective tiers, that’s.
With the StreamSaver bundle, clients would be capable of watch Child Reindeer, Ted Lasso, The Traitors US, Stranger Issues, Severance and Poker Face all underneath one singular invoice.
We assume that customers should enroll by way of their Comcast account, although we must always study extra within the coming weeks.
