"For the first time, every event and all programming will stream live on Peacock's premium tier, with no pay TV subscription required," explains The Hollywood Reporter's Alex Weprin, adding: "That is a significant change in strategy from the Tokyo Olympics, which ran last summer. Last year, the company streamed gymnastics, track & field and men’s basketball on Peacock, and had some streaming-exclusive studio programming. The hope was that these tentpole sports (basketball was exclusive to the paid tiers, the others streamed for free) would drive subscriptions."
