Comcast
Comcast is the second largest broadcasting and cable television company in the world by revenue, and is America’s largest home Internet service provider. The company markets its consumer cable TV, Internet, telephone, and wireless services under the Xfinity label, introduced in 2010 to replace its Comcast brand. The following year, Comcast acquired NBCUniversal, a move that brought the company into the business of producing feature films and television programs. In 2018, the company acquired British pay-TV provider Sky, continuing its expansion into the cable and streaming world. In 2020, through its ownership of NBCUniversal, Comcast launched Peacock, an online streaming service that primarily features content produced by NBCUniversal studios.
