Roku to launch streaming bundles as part of its efforts to continue growing its profitability

Roku shared its fourth-quarter earnings for 2025 this week, as well as some exciting plans in the pipeline. The company is rolling out new streaming bundles, expanding its $3 subscription service, Howdy, to more platforms, and partnering with more premium streaming services following the successful addition of HBO Max. Launching bundles in 2026 is a smart move, as it could attract more viewers looking for enticing deals amid rising subscription prices. Many streaming platforms have been increasing their rates recently, and Roku aims to appeal to cost-conscious consumers. The positive impact of HBO Max on Roku’s premium subscriptions has encouraged the company to continue this strategy by adding more top-tier partners, which is likely to drive growth going forward. Additionally, Roku launched its ad-free subscription streaming service, Howdy, last year and plans to expand its availability beyond the Roku platform. While specific details remain undisclosed, Roku CEO Anthony Wood stated at CES last month that the goal is to distribute Howdy widely, saying, “We want to distribute it everywhere.” Other highlights include Roku users streaming …

YouTube TV Gets Cheaper Sports, News, and Entertainment Bundles

YouTube is splitting YouTube TV into a selection of tailored YouTube TV Plans, allowing subscribers to pay less for a smaller selection of channels. “TV should be easy,” reads the blog post announcing the change.

The Best Streaming Bundles and Streaming Deals of January 2026

The Best Streaming Bundles and Streaming Deals of January 2026

The first Streaming deals of 2026 are already rolling in, and they’re needed. A number of streaming services, most notably Paramount and Disney, increased their prices at the end of last year and the beginning of this one. The best January streaming deals are mostly bundles and annual price cuts. It’s not an eye-poppingly low number, but you can get a 4K-streaming, ad-free bundle of HBO Max, Disney+, and Hulu for $33. That’s more than 40 percent off—or $23 less than list price. But most important: no ads. Disney is newly offering a minimal $3 incentive for those who want to try an ad-supported Disney/Hulu bundle. But my biggest revelation, after the Black Friday deals blitz, has been that deals with ads are often no deal at all. It turns out I don’t like ads. No ads means no regret when the climactic scene in an old Homeland episode is abducted by a discount car insurance company instead of whoever else was supposed to do the abducting. This said, the ad-supported HBO/Disney bundle is also …
