I paid for the top level last year to get commercial free viewing and got snookered. So I dropped the auto renew and plan to wait it out at the free level for the first round to see what is actually offered for free.
What level are you signing up for and why?
I pay the $9.99 per month because I don't want to see commercials and my kids like to watch other stuff on there.
I have found that many movies and tv shows have commercials even with the highest level peac ock premium level, including supercross.
Peacock went "all in" on commercials for live sports programming this year. I'll be watching on the cheapest package that includes AMA SX/MX.
$4.99 a month and it seems just fine.
The Shop
DeCal Works Huge Plastic Inventory of UFO and Polisport kits.
Luxon 4-Post Bar Mounts
$189.95 - $239.95
Free shipping: VITALMX
Peacock comes with whatever Xfinity/Comcast package we have and no commercials. As much as we pay for cable and internet we should get it. $299 a month not counting Netflix, Hulu, Prime and Fox Nation. So when ya come ole Billy’s house you have a large variety of things to watch on TV pus smokin fast internet LOL. My wife is a TV junkie! With that said the way she bundled our cable and internet it probably not a bad deal for what all we get.
If you are buying it just for SX/MX/SMX then just get the $4.99 package because there is no difference in coverage between the two packages as it is a live sport. If you plan on watching a lot of the other programing then get the $9.99 package as much of it will be commercial free.
Got in on the $.99 a month plan, didn’t even know that they had options
Peacock is offering 1-Year of the Peacock Premium TV Subscription for $12 for the first year ($0.99 per month) with coupon code SAVEBIG [Exp 11/20]. (auto-renews at $50 per year after that, cancel anytime).
these types of threads are sad.... sad people are willing to pay to watch a 3 hr long commercial... sad our industry has thrown their core viewers under the bus like this... and sad because very few people will watch because it's not just a pita to watch, but it also costs money.... the only upside is the cash going to the millionaires running this sport... everything else is a downside.. less viewers... less new riders... no mainstream exposure.... this is how a sport dies - greed$$$$$$$$$$$......
You are the Sad one here bud… every post you make is negative, go buy yourself a snickers and eat the whole thing !
Got the premium package for $19.99 a year back in October. Bring on A1
That's our stance.... TV most of the time isn't our thing anyway. Always out in the shop, so Sirius keeps us entertained.
Same here. I originally ordered it 2 years ago for the Tour de France and some other pro cycling race broadcasts. I watch it for more and more lately for Premier League, Indy Cars and SX.
Anything is better than last year at this point.
What are our options?
Do Cox cable subscribers still get SX for free?
Yes I've yet to pull the plug on cable like so many others have as all these streaming services add up anyway and are a PITA.
I'm not a fan of streaming I'm old school.
Is it just me but the Thursday night football broadcast on peacock sucks it's not nearly as clear as my normal cable 4K and buffers.
You should start your own YouTube channel and spend all your time there....
I think it might just be you.
Thursday Night Football is now on Prime Video this season.
Pit Row
Actually you are correct.
I just know it's streaming and it sucks.
I miss turning on the TV hitting the remote and I'm good to go. No signing on to streaming services etc but then I'm 64 so there you go.
64 is no excuse. I’m 75 and I stream everything.
$5.99 per month and I get qualifying and races.
Peacock and You tube TV next year for me and the NFL. I thought big cable companies were going to ran out.
But depending on what you watch you will a who's who guide to what you can watch or can't watch.
Whatever the most expensive one is? I've had Peacock since it started, mainly for SX, but now there's quite a few movies and shows we watch.
Last year somewhere around May, I recall that SX or MX (or both) switched to Mav TV or Fuel? I don't remember exactly but I do recall I was unable to watch on Peacock at some point, is that right? As far as I could tell, there was no App to stream Mav TV...?
So, this year all SX is on Peacock? What about MX?
SX, MX, SMX, are all on Peacock.
I cannot believe we have people complaining about the streaming package. It's less $ per month than a McDonalds combo meal and Peacock works great. Some saying they miss TV?? You mean having to be sitting right there when it starts and deal with commercials without being able to pause, FF, Rewind or watch whenever you want?
Ok, thanks for clearing that up for me. I checked Peacock's sport page and they say nothing about Motorcycle racing.

I have renewed my subscription, looking forward to a new season.
I can't access Peacock because I'm in Canada, but here's an article:

Click on sports then scroll the sports icons to the right and SX is the last one.
Here you go. Right from Peacock today
