3. I'm a happy subscriber to Peacock, and I don't even watch much TV

I got to see the Winter Olympics last winter, and now the World Cup games, thanks to Peacock. Another benefit is that all (!) of the Saturday Night Live episodes of 51 years are available on Peacock and nowhere else. Plus new shows and movies that I watch from time to time.

Another thing I like is that I can share my membership with my son and daughter-in-law who live in another state. I could never do that with cable TV but it's possible with streaming services. I've found that I can get by without the old-style "cable TV" as long as Peacock and Hulu are around.

The entire industry is evolving quickly, so I might have a different opinion in a few months.
