DescriptionWill the newly launched Apple TV+ × Peacock streaming bundle surpass 1 million paid U.S. subscribers by January 2026? On October 20, 2025, Apple and NBCUniversal introduced their first-ever joint streaming plan combining Apple TV+ and Peacock. The partnership aims to boost engagement by offering exclusive content, cross-platform bundles, and reduced pricing to challenge industry leaders like Netflix and Disney+. For this event, “paid subscribers” are defined as unique U.S.-based users with active, recurring payment verified through company reports, public filings, or third-party analytics (e.g., Antenna, SimilarWeb). Users accessing the bundle via free trial periods or promotional credits will not be counted as paid subscribers. The event will resolve YES if official data, financial reports, or credible media coverage confirm that the Apple TV+ × Peacock bundle surpasses one million paid U.S. subscribers by the close date. It will resolve NO if verified data shows fewer than one million paid users, or if no credible confirmation is available before the deadline. This event predicts whether Apple’s first collaborative streaming venture with NBCUniversal will achieve a million paid subscriptions within its first 90 days — marking a potential shift in the competitive dynamics of the U.S. media streaming market.
