Been waiting for this service starting so I can cancel my sling Blue subscription. Peacock includes NBCSN and therefore all of the premier league games included in the price. I’m currently paying $40 a month just to have NBCSN in my subscription on sling so this will save me $30 a month and I’ll get to see all the premier league games. For people like me this is a great alternative to the bloated cable packages.
