Peacock is set to launch on Wednesday, July 15, and with that comes a new competitor in the TV streaming market.

The service will start out at $4.99 a month with ads and $9.99 without ads. There will be a free version of the service that will be limited in what programs users will be able to watch and the free tier will also have more ads than the premium version with ads.
