At this point, managing streaming subscriptions feels a lot like playing whack-a-mole with your bank account. Every few months, something goes up in price, or a new tier appears. So when a deal actually makes sense, it is worth paying attention to. Amazon is now bundling Apple TV and Peacock Premium Plus together for $20 a month on Prime Video, saving you $10 compared to subscribing to both individually.
What you are getting
The bundle brings together two services that have built some of the best content libraries in streaming. Apple TV brings originals like Shrinking and Pluribus, while Peacock covers everything from award-winning shows like The Traitors to content from NBC, Bravo, and Universal Pictures. Both services are largely ad-free, except for live sports, which seems to be the one sacred space advertisers will never surrender. Peacock’s Premium Plus tier also lets you download titles for offline viewing and throws in access to local NBC stations, which is a genuinely useful bonus depending on where you live.
Bought separately, Apple TV costs $13 a month, and Peacock Premium Plus costs $17 a month, for a total of $30. The bundle knocks that down to $20, saving you $10 every month. That is $120 a year back in your pocket, which is practically another streaming service.
How to get it
You will need an active Amazon Prime subscription for this and a US billing address. Once you have that, head to the Subscriptions menu inside Prime Video, and it should be waiting for you there. Amazon notes this is available for a limited time, so it is not a permanent fixture on the menu.
So, if you already subscribe to either service, this is a fairly easy decision. Paying less for two things you were already paying for separately is not a complicated value proposition. If you have been on the fence about either platform, the bundled price makes trying both considerably less painful. The content across both services is strong enough that $20 a month is hard to argue with, especially when that same amount barely covers a single premium tier on some other platforms.
