Hot Deals on Streaming Services and Devices

Top Cyber Week Streaming Deals 2020

Due to the global pandemic, people have been turning to streaming services for entertainment to watch their favorite movies and shows. Some of the top streaming services are Netflix, HBO, Disney +, Hulu and Amazon Prime Video, but there are a plethora of others. We're focusing on Cyber Week streaming deals for 2020.

What you choose will depend on what you want to watch, but there is no shortage of options.

What is a Streaming Service?

A streaming service is usually a subscription-based service that offers streaming of movies and TV shows through the internet. Usually people use a WiFi connection. The majority of streaming services are owned by major film studios and corporations.

What is a Streaming Device?

There are also such things such as streaming devices. A streaming device is a piece of technology that connects to your TV, allowing you to stream shows and movies. Usually it is connected via HDMI cord. Some smart TVs even have streaming services already setup in their network, such as the Roku Smart TV.

Top Cyber Week Deals for Streaming Services and Accessories

Right now, a lot of companies have not disclosed this information yet, so we will cover last year’s deals so you know what to expect. We will also talk about streaming device deals.

Streaming Device Sales

Roku Premiere
Roku is one of the most popular streaming device brands. Not only do they offer sticks to attach via USB into your TV, but they also offer smart TVs with the streaming technology already built into the system.

Right now on Amazon, you can buy the Roku Premiere for $27, saving you $13. And hey, every cent counts!

What is the Roku Premiere? Glad you asked! This device is Alexa compatible and allows you to stream shows and movies from Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV and Sling.

On top of this streaming variety, the setup up is quick and simple, it is easily controlled by a small remote, it automatically installs software updates and you have the ability to access a private listening mode via the Roku app on your phone.

Roku Ultra LT Streaming Media Player
While this sale includes the 2019 model, this streaming device still has a lot to offer. Right now, it is on sale on Walmart for $59 saving you around $20.

The Ultra LT model is built with a quad-core processor. This means it should guarantee a smooth streaming experience, without lagging or static. In fact, this device can handle heavy streaming in HD, 4K and HDR. On top of this, this technology offers stunning picture quality and it is all controlled by a single, small remote.

Hulu
Last year, if you subscribed to Hulu around Cyber Week, you were able to save $48 on an annual plan. Users were able to purchase the Basic Hulu subscription for $1.99 per month ($24 all year). Only new subscribers could get a hold of this deal, meaning if you already had a Hulu plan, it was not available to you. Another restriction is that if you signed up for their 2018 Black Friday promo, you were unable to sign up for this one.
