Best subscription bundles: Is the Apple One plan right for you?

When streaming services first launched, they offered a convenient alternative to traditional ways of watching movies, TV shows and listening to music. As the market evolved, most platforms doubled down on video libraries, while their overall packaging and value offerings received less attention.

Today, however, providers are rolling out ever-richer subscription bundles—combining movies, series, music and extra perks into single plans. But what are the best streaming bundles in 2025?

If you’ve been looking for a multi-service bundle, you’re in luck: the Cybernews team and I have searched through expert analyses and real-world user feedback to rank the top streaming bundles available today.

A detailed look at the 5 best subscription bundles

1. Apple One – overall best subscription bundle

Price	From $19.95/month
Free version	Yes – 30-day free trial
Hi-Res audio	✅
Best for	Apple users

If you’re already in the Apple ecosystem, you’ll love Apple One. While it’s a great way to save a few bucks each month, it’s Apple Music that really makes this streaming bundle stand out. It offers a massive catalog of Hi-Res, spatial music in Apple’s own lossless audio format – ALAC.

The Individual plan starts at $19.95/month and includes Apple Music, TV+, and Arcade, as well as 50GB of iCloud+. Meanwhile, going up to the Family tier adds 150GB of extra storage and introduces sharing, making the savings even greater when spread over more users. Finally, the top-tier Premier plan adds Fitness+ and News+ and bumps the iCloud storage to 2TB.

2. Disney+, Hulu, and Max Bundle – best bundle for all major streaming services in one package

Price	From $16.99/month
Free version	❌
Hi-Res audio	❌
Best for	Movie fans and TV show enthusiasts

When it first appeared, the Disney+, Hulu, and Max Bundle was one of the best streaming deals 2024 brought us, and that trend continues in 2025. Whether you’re a fan of Marvel movies and TV shows, prefer HBO exclusives like The Last of Us, or want to enjoy other Hulu originals like The Bear, this is a pick for you.

Those who can tolerate ads can get away with paying just $16.99/month for the entire package. However, if you want to go for the ad-free version, the price goes up to $29.99/month.

3. Walmart+ with Paramount+ – best shopping, video streaming, and live TV bundle

Price	From $12.95/month
Free version	Yes – 30-day free trial
Hi-Res audio	❌
Best for	Budget users

The Walmart+ with Paramount+ bundle is one of the newer kids on the block, but it is already one of the best options for budget-conscious users, as it perfectly combines streaming services with shopping.

Besides having over 40,000 episodes, movies, and documentaries, Paramount+ also includes live sports, making this offer one of the best TV streaming bundles you can get today. And at just $12.95/month, it’s also one of the most affordable options on this list.

4. Amazon Prime Membership – best streaming bundles for existing Amazon shoppers

Price	From $14.99/month
Free version	Yes – 30-day free trial
Hi-Res audio	✅ (with Amazon Music Unlimited)
Best for	Convenience-first users

Amazon Prime Membership focuses on combining streaming services with general convenience. It comes with streaming and digital benefits in the form of Amazon Music and Prime Video, on top of the already valuable shopping and delivery advantages for the Amazon store.

However, the basic Amazon Music app doesn’t include HD audio and offline listening. These are only available with Amazon Music Unlimited – a subscription that’ll set you back an additional $10.99/month on top of Prime. So, if Hi-Res audio is what you’re after, you should be prepared to pay at least $27.98/month if you go the Amazon route.

5. Xfinity StreamSaver – best streaming package deals for Xfinity internet or TV users

Price	From $15/month
Free version	❌
Hi-Res audio	❌
Best for	Netflix bundle deal seekers

The Xfinity StreamSaver represents the cheapest way to bundle streaming services like Apple TV+, Netflix, and Peacock, as you can get all 3 for just $15/month. Subscribing to each of these individually would cost you a total of $25.97/month.

There is, however, a major downside to Xfinity StreamSaver – it’s only available to users with Xfinity post-paid internet or an active Xfinity TV subscription. Ads are also present for both Netflix and Peacock, as bundling streaming services through Xfinity only includes entry-level plans.

Apart from that, Xfinity lets you combine streaming services of some of the largest video content libraries in the world, making it one of the best choices in 2025.

Cybernews methodology – how we picked the best subscription bundles

To ensure only genuinely reliable subscription services make the cut, the Cybernews research crew and I conducted an exhaustive analysis of subscription bundles. Our research was based on both expert reviews and real-user feedback, with bundles being selected based on the following criteria:

• Audio quality (30%). Whether you’re listening to classical music or a podcast, audio quality plays a pivotal role. That’s why we prioritized platforms with Hi-Res or lossless audio formats, such as FLAC or ALAC.
• Value for money (25%). Users look for bundles because they want to save a few bucks each month. Therefore, packages should be more affordable than the total price of their individual services.
• Additional bundled services (20%). The whole point of a bundle is to include more than one thing, so we gave priority to those that offer additional perks. These include video streaming, cloud storage, and even shopping.
• User experience (10%). Regardless of how many digital services it encompasses, a high-quality streaming bundle should be easy to set up and enjoyable to use.
• Availability (15%). The best streaming service bundles are available across a wide range of platforms, so we focused on deals that support both desktop and mobile devices.

What is a streaming bundle, and why are streamers choosing it?

Stream service bundles are deals that offer multiple streaming services in one package. They are much more convenient and cost less per month than the total price of all of their constituent components.

For example, the abovementioned Xfinity StreamSaver is available at just $15/month. Meanwhile, the price of individual Apple TV+, Netflix, and Peacock subscriptions amounts to $25.97/month. That’s precisely why streamers are going for bundles instead of subscribing to each service individually.

On the other hand, streaming companies like Disney, Hulu, and Paramount are turning toward bundles to stay competitive in an overly saturated market. They’re also doing it to keep users subscribed longer. After all, you’re far less likely to cancel one subscription you don’t need if you’re actively using the others that are part of the bundle.

And while some users look for deals including Netflix, like the one I’ve just mentioned, others prefer it when streaming bundle packages encompass more than one aspect. Apple One is a perfect example of that, as it includes multiple services like music, video content, cloud storage, gaming, news, and even fitness.

How much do streaming bundles cost?

The price of streaming subscription bundles greatly varies by the services they include, with prices ranging from $10/month to $80/month. This can be best seen in the Disney+, Hulu, and Max Bundle example, so let’s analyze its price.

If you can tolerate ads, this is a great offer at just $16.99/month. Meanwhile, an individual subscription to each of these is currently $9.99/month, that is, $29.97/month without the bundle.

For the ad-free option, the bundle price gets up to $29.99/month, but that’s still almost $22/month less than the total price of $51.97/month for all 3 services individually. That’s currently $15.99 for Disney+ Premium, $18.99/month for Hulu (no ads), and $16.99/month for Max Standard.

In conclusion, streaming subscription bundles offer value that simply isn’t there if you were to go the individual service route.

Final words on the best subscription bundles

Bundles are a great way to get multiple streaming services without paying the full price of each. All of these deals are valuable in their own unique way, but Apple One is our best pick. It includes Apple Music, a streaming service known for its ALAC file format and lossless audio.

Other users might enjoy different streaming service bundles altogether. For example, while Xfinity StreamSaver and Disney+, Hulu, and Max Bundle focus on movies and TV shows, Amazon Prime Membership and Walmart+ with Paramount+ offer general convenience. To find what works best for you, you’ll have to consider what you value and let your needs guide you.
