Couple of comments: First, Peacock is free for Xfinity cable subscribers like me. Even though it's free, I don't use it. Why? Because I'd have to wade through an ocean of garbage to find anything worth watching. Example--their fake movies (Yes, this is a thing: cheap ripoffs of major studio productions, with similar names so you get tricked into wasting five minutes of your life watching before you realize it's a knockoff and change the channel). Peacock is not failing because of economics of bundling blah blah... It's failing because it isn't even a good deal when it's free. Second: I am happy with unbundling. Paying twice as much for ten times more content pipes, when I wouldn't have time to watch any of them, is silly. It's like the feature bloat on Microsoft Word--I'd happily buy a version of Word with 10% of the features and pay half what I pay now. Bundling streaming services makes sense only if you don't have a life.
