Streamsaver channel list?
I keep getting offers for Xfinity Streamsaver with "Netflix, Apple TV+, Peacock and 40+" channels. Yet, I have been unable to find ANYWHERE that actually tells you what the "40+ channels" are. I have found multiple sites that just regurgitate the Comcast press release that says "40+ live TV channels including, AMC, A&E, Hallmark, History Channel, Lifetime, WEtv, plus over two dozen integrated FAST channels like AccuWeather, NBC News, TODAY All Day and Xumo Movies."
Ok, so that accounts for 10 of the "40+" channels... what are the rest? My sneaking suspicion is that most or all of them are just the same old rehashed stuff you can get on PlutoTV or other similar free streaming apps, but so far I haven't found any site or forum threads that are helpful beyond what the press release already said.
And do I need any sort of Xfinity equipment to make use of this service? No streaming box from them or anything of the like? (I already have Apple TV's, Roku, Fire Sticks, you name it...)

So you have to have an internet or TV package with Xfinity in order to add one of these?

I have been searching and I can't find a real list of channels. How's that possible? So sneaky. I am afraid I will purchase it and then all I can get is stuff that I have no interest for.
