How Spectrum TV works in 2026
Spectrum’s current lineup bundles roughly $100/mo worth of ad-supported streaming services — Disney+, HBO Max, Paramount+, Peacock, ESPN Select and AMC+ — into its main cable tiers at no extra charge. The free Spectrum TV app runs on Roku, Apple TV, Samsung and mobile, so a cable box is optional; the Xumo Stream Box is free for six months, then $5/mo.
What to know before you order
- No term contracts; advertised prices are 12-month promotional rates and step up afterward.
- A broadcast TV fee applies on top of advertised cable-tier pricing — confirm the current amount for your market on the call.
- Cloud DVR is an add-on (roughly $10/mo).
- TV Stream is the box-free budget path at $40/mo.
