Bustronaut Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I place the blame solely on my two decades working in TV news and thus the layer of authenticity it adds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 Couple notes. It seems that if you are an AT&T/DirecTV subscriber you will get a year free of HBO Max. No word on current HBO subscribers or AT&T wireless consumers. Also.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted October 30, 2019 Author Share Posted October 30, 2019 Here's the biggest news of the day. If you already have HBO Now, you will get HBO Max for free. So it will not be an extra fee. It's $14.99 and you get everything HBO. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliff Hanger Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 HBO MAX is also gonna include all Crunchyroll content. So while they're not saying Vrv is dead, that combined with the slow erosion of non-Warner content as partners choose not to renew certainly give the impression of a dead platform walking. It's a shame, when it was a clearinghouse for niche services that weren't thriving it was my most-used streaming platform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Now, if they will extend that to people subscribed to HBO on TV/HBO Go, I'll be very happy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Control Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) I need to unsubscribe at this point. My wife signed up to Prime because she was making a big book order and basically got a year for free. She picked up Disney+ because she’s a Disney fan. We signed up for free trial access to Apple and Acorn. We already had Netflix, and we’re sharing a Crave account. Our library gives me access to Hoopla and Kanopy. And I got us a subscription to Criterion. And that’s nuts (especially given that I also subscribe to Esquire, ajpw.tv, and Spotify). I think Netflix and Prime are the, uh, prime candidates for getting the axe. Anyone else over subscribed? Edited May 9, 2020 by Control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several of the ones I have, like Criterion, Mubi, and Film Movement, have the pause subscription option, so that helps. I do from time to time drop things. I just dropped ESPN + and the WWE network. Showtime, CBS All-Access, and a few things I have through my Roku are on the chopping block. I got a free year of Disney through a Verizon promotion. Once that is up I'll do the bundle thing with Hulu and ESPN+. I also have Stardom World, Night Flight Plus, DC Universe, YouTube Premium (on pause until the new season of Cobra Kai), Netflix and through Prime I have Shudder, Britbox, and Acorn tv. And after letting HBO Now go last month, I just signed up for the HBO Max deal. Oh, and Sling TV, which is going on pause as soon as this season of The Challenge is finished. I really need to pick up a library card so I can get Kanopy and Hoopla. Edited May 10, 2020 by Execproducer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I think right now I have Prime (for video & shipping), criterion and YouTube premium. And NBC Sports for the PL. didnt renew MLB his year. probably a half dozen or so I would want, but likely would just collect dust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Quibi has apparently lost a metric fuckton of money and its CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg is blaming it on the pandemic. Because no one who's locked in their home would possibly ever look at their phone for entertainment. It also couldn't possibly have anything to do with the content being terrible. And it also could have nothing to do with users not being able to share any of the content. Again, people invested over $1 BILLION into this thing. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southside Jim Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I have nothing but contempt for "reality" shows as it is, but I never looked at Judge Judy or The People's Court and said to myself "If only they got Chrissy Tiegen to host, then I would watch it."
