NBCUniversal And Charter Ink Multi-Year Distribution Deal

deadline.com:

NBCUniversal and Charter Communications announced what they called a “holistic” multi-year distribution deal that, as have Charter’s previous renewals, adds streaming, in this case Peacock, to Charter’s Spectrum TV Select video customers.

The agreement calls for Charter to continue carrying NBCUniversal’s full portfolio of broadcast, entertainment, Hispanic, news and sports networks while including streaming apps in the cable bundle by making ad-supported Peacock available to the Spectrum customers at no additional cost in the coming months.

Through similar programming deals reached over the past year, Charter will soon provide Spectrum TV Select video customers up to $65 per month of retail direct-to-consumer streaming value, including Peacock, Disney+, ESPN+, Paramount+, AMC+, BET+, ViX, Max and Discovery+.

Charter also will allow video customers to upgrade to Peacock Premium+, which is ad-free, and will make both Peacock products available for purchase to its millions of broadband-only customers in 2025, advancing Charter’s goal of enhancing the overall value and flexibility of its offerings.
