Worth knowing

Peacock holds exclusive US streaming rights to every Premier League match — a massive deal for soccer fans.
Fubo TV launched as a soccer-only service in 2015 before expanding to 150+ channels across all major sports.
Peacock's free tier exists but carries heavy ads and no live sports — you need at least the $7.99 plan.
Fubo TV includes a Sports Plus add-on (~$10.99/mo) for NFL RedZone, MLB Network, and more niche sports channels.
Peacock is the only place to stream WWE Raw, SmackDown replays, and WWE pay-per-view events in the US.

Fubo TV originally only streamed soccer and was basically just for expat Europeans missing their Sunday fixtures — now it carries more channels than most cable packages your parents regret paying for.
