NBC has launched Peacock TV on Android, Chromecast and Android TV
NBC has launched Peacock TV, a new streaming service that is now available on Google’s platform, which includes Chromecast, Android TV, and Android devices.
Peacock TV launches with tons of content for its users, in any of its three available tiers. The base tier is entirely free, but it comes with ads and a limited library for viewing. The second tier comes at $4.99, and it can be an interesting upgrade for users who want a larger library. However, this second tier will also show you ads. The third and most expensive tier is priced at $9.99 and lets you unlock even more content, with fewer ads than the previous options.
You can already download the Peacock TV app to start streaming on your Android device, and maybe the best part is that NBC will give Android users a 3-month trial period on the service’s 4.99 tier. The service will be free between today, July 15, and October 15, 2020. Unfortunately, this new streaming service won’t be available for Roku or Android Fire TVs in the near future.

Netflix video quality will return to normal after COVID-19 measures
Video streaming services such as Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon were forced to reduce their bitrates in several European countries back in March as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This measure was taken to reduce the load on ISPs and to cope with the millions of users were consuming tons of content while in lockdown. However, it seems that streaming services are starting to return to their normal HD quality in some European countries.
According to the FlatpanelsHD, Netflix is starting to give its customers normal HD quality in several European countries. Users from Denmark, Norway, Germany, and more countries have been posting on forums that their streaming quality has been restored. A Netflix spokesperson said:
“Please note, we are working with ISPs to help increase capacity. In the last month alone, we have added four times the normal capacity. As conditions improve, we will lift these limitations.”
Now, we have to wait for other companies to start working as they did, while the world slowly returns to normal.
