Peacock, the streaming service launched last month by NBCUniversal for Comcast subscribers, has set a deal with Apple to be available across the tech giant’s devices when it launches in July.…
The distribution partnership is the first one beyond Cox Communications to be announced by NBCU for the July 15 national rollout.
The distribution agreement covers the iPhone, iPad and Apple TV for Peacock’s national debut on July 15. At that stage it will have a free, ad-supported tier with 7,500 hours of TV and movie content live and on demand. For $5 a month , viewers can upgrade to the premium level, which will have 15,000 hours of programming. An additional $5 a month brings subscribers an ad-free version.
“Our priority is to bring Peacock’s unrivaled collection of content to people across major distributors and device platforms,” NBCU content distribution chairman Matt Bond said. “We look forward to bringing Peacock to Apple customers when we launch around the U.S. in July, capitalizing on Apple’s incredible reach and connecting with millions of viewers across their devices.”
