Comcast today announced that Xfinity video and Internet subscribers can now order the Xfinity StreamSaver, a streaming bundle of Netflix, Peacock and Apple TV+, for $15 a month. The package includes the $6.99 a month Netflix with ads plan, Peacock Premium, which is now $5.99 a month, and Apple TV+, which is $9.99 a month. You can learn more here.
The $15 a month price tag represents an $8 a month savings if you purchased each of the three streaming services separately. The bundle, however, is only available to Comcast Xfinity subscribers.
Current and new Xfinity Internet or TV customers can add Xfinity StreamSaver with no annual contracts. Xfinity subscribers can also combine the streaming bundle with Now TV, Comcast’s skinny programming package that includes 40 live TV channels such as AMC, A&E, Hallmark, History Channel, and Lifetime, among others. The streaming bundle with Now TV would cost $30 a month. Now TV is normally $20 a month.
The streaming bundle can be seen on Comcast’s Entertainment OS platform, which includes the X1 set-tops, Xumo Stream Box and Flex devices.
