PS. I called their posted phone numbers...each one announced they DON'T monitor the phone. Emailed them and discovered they are "NON REPLY" addresses.
Don't even think of doing business with them.
Ads have always been a part of TV (The Ed Sullivan Show - "And now a word from our sponsor..."), except for premium channels like HBO. Ads were necessary at first because there was no other way to get the money to produce shows with free OTA broadcasts. HBO didn't have ads because we paid $6-9/month (in mid-1970's dollars) to get their exclusive content ad-free. Cable had an incredible racket going because we paid for cable but still got ads. (If there's anyone to be pissed at, I vote for cable companies.) Today, there is no future in which ads don't exist unless you want to pay a LOT more for your content.

Divide the total cost of a season by the number of households watching. Multiply that number by the number of shows a household watches on that network.** Factor in that many of us will cancel until new seasons of our shows drop, so the income is sporadic. You think your $15/month ad-free covers that?
**Not episode, season. Not people, households. You only pay one monthly fee no matter how many people live at your address, how many episodes are in a season, or how many shows you watch on that network.
Netflix managed it for a long time because they weren't producing content in the early days. They were re-running shows that other companies had already paid to produce. Once they started producing their own shows, they initially did it by taking out huge loans, hoping that an increased subscriber base from their exclusive Emmy-winning shows would be enough. It wasn't. So now Netflix has ads and is ruthless about canceling shows that don't get enough eyeballs to justify the cost to produce them. The answer to "why did my favorite show get canceled?" is almost always "not enough people were watching."
Rinse and repeat for every network and streaming service.
For those curious, this article is 11 years old but it's still mostly how the sausage gets made, although how advertisers decide who to give money to is shifting because VOD has upended how to count viewers. Nielsen Ratings is having a meltdown because of it.

Do Hollywood execs get paid a stupid salary and bonus? Yes. Is that the only reason for ads? No. Show business is still a business. Except it based on the creative arts where it's impossible to predict where lightning is going to strike. There's a lot of "throwing sh*t at the wall and seeing what sticks" which costs money. And it's been like this for over 70 years.

As for the programming, It's all universal NBC content. They have a lot of 4K content. Movies have approximately 3 minutes of ads at the beginning of the film before it even starts. After that there are no ads in the movie.
TV shows have ads in the beginning and throughout the TV show.
I only watched movies with peacock. Since I don't like sitting through ads
I thought the quality was very good. Excellent streaming quality.
Does anyone know when the deal expires? I was thinking of buying it on Friday for next week's matches.bHavving some issues switching on incognito mode to view the link I keep getting redirected to manage my account.
I wonder if there is an option to do it again.
