In addition, NBCU is expanding another interactive commerce-related ad experience – Virtual Concessions – on Peacocktv.com/tv and NBC for special holiday programming. It follows the successful debut of the Virtual Concessions feature over the summer for the 2024 Paris Olympics. It’s meant for QSR and other advertisers to offer up interactive ads that prompt viewers via QR codes to order food, beverages and other items (such as holiday snacks and gifts) before settling in for a big game or binge viewing session. The upcoming expansion extends the feature to NBCU’s Christmas in Rockefeller Center program showcasing the annual tree lighting.
The move comes as NBCU-parent Comcast separately announced official plans this month to spin off most of its cable networks – sans Bravo – into a standalone, publicly-listed company, as the broader linear pay TV continues to see declines. In addition to Bravo, NBCU is holding on to NBC broadcast and Peacock streaming assets.

The main difference the two Peacock Premium or Peacock Premium Plus can be seen in the that there are ads. While it costs you money for the Peacock Premium service, the only thing you get is the extra movies and shows. There are still commercials.
If you’d like to stay clear of advertising completely, you’ll need to shell out an additional $5 per month and select Peacock Premium Plus. It’s free of ads, and includes everything else you need and lets you download specific films and shows and watch offline on mobile devices.
Be aware that You’ll still be faced with ads on certain titles as well as live sports broadcasts (due in part to rights to stream.)
Peacock is accessible via Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, and Apple TV devices and also through games consoles like PlayStation and personal computers.
The tier is $9.99 per month and $99.99 for the whole year.
