NBC's Peacock streaming app now available on Roku

Some three months after its launch, NBCUniversal's streaming channel Peacock is finally available on Roku, the most viewed streaming platform. The two had been at odds over how to split ad revenues. After a game of chicken Friday, where NBCUniversal threatened to remove all 11 NBC streaming channels from Roku, by the afternoon, they came to terms and put Peacock on the service Monday. Peacock is still missing from the other huge player in streaming, Amazon, but is available on the Apple TV set-top box, Google Chromecast, tablets, computers and phones, Android TV devices, Microsoft's Xbox One, Sony PlayStation 4, Vizio and LG Smart TVs.
