And there’re currently three tiers of cost in Peacock TV:
- Peacock Free – More than 7,500 hours of free content, with ads
- Peacock Premium – Access to everything on Peacock for US$4.99/month or US$49.99/year, with ads
- Peacock Premium Plus – Access to everything for US$9.99/month or US$99.99/year, without the ads on most contents
