Yeah, Peacock is getting a ton of CBB inventory. I'm really surprised with how much they are getting. Nothing on USA either, which surprises me. They also get the opening round of the BTT, which has always been on BTN. Even though the Gophers suck at CBB, I better get to watch every fucking game. I'm not paying for BTN+ to watch them boat race some team from the SWAC.

I hope this means they'll improve their app. I get it for free thru Xfinity and the app is trash.

I have Peacock so that won't be a problem for me. It just really makes the user experience not all that great. You can't flip back and forth between FS1, CBSSN and Peacock. Probably gonna watch a lot of these games on my phone.

This is very true. I hate when Liverpool is on Peacock, I can't switch to something else or even see other scores. It's actually the same with ESPN+. I prefer cable for that user friendly easy switch of channels but alas, I still have both.

EPSN+ is a little more user-friendly. When I watch that on the Roku or Fire Stick we have, if you hit the down button, along the bottom of the screen it will show what else is on at that point. You can select and switch to it. It's pretty good. But you're also only stuck with ESPN properties. Still can't switch to NBC/CBS/FOX/FS1

xfinity mobile or cable?

Cable. It's free...for now. I saw some blurb a month or so ago that they plan on phasing it out and charging everyone. Unless they upgrade the app, I won't bother paying for it. I mostly use it for wrasslin (WWE Network got folded into Peacock) and the interface has been terrible. Hard to navigate, feeds are mess (freezes up, other times the audio doesn't sync up, etc). Been that way with some other sports on it too so its not just WWE stuff. I'll just pirate the stuff I really want to see if they don't step up their game

Yeah, they have that live and upcoming section. But it still as you stated limits one from switching networks. I’m still not getting rid of it but it absolutely sucks when networks hide games on their streaming site to promote it while that same networks major channel has some sort of yardgame/obstacle BS or reruns of a sitcom from 20+years ago.

Yeah, I have it too.. and tbh I think I only watched some EPL games and a movie on it so far (Bad guys?).

If they begin to charge for it, I'm not paying for it either lol
