Its not streaming. Its MAX.
i've gone from being a regular on and off HBO subscriber to actively hating their very existence. so if that's what they were going for i say they are doing a bang up job
it seems to be moving that direction. the new MAX (or whatever it's now called) has several sub-channels as part of the service. It's acting more like a hub. I'm not really complaining, but my home library is saturated with t.v. series titles. It has gotten more difficult to find movies. They're still there, but priority seems to be given to television with the last update.

Wait. Why is HBO using "MAX" in its app naming? Wouldn't that be confusing to Cinemax fans?? iderno if Cinemax is even around anymore, to be honest.
i think my life will be easier if i just pretend HBO is a relic of the past. like floppy disks

I have no idea if this helps you, but I subscribe to Starz through my Amazon Prime Video subscription for an added nine bucks a month or so. (I tend to add it when a series restarts, then drop it again once the season ends.) You can also add Max that way, I THINK. Might be cheaper than a standalone subscription?

ALSO, Max is apparently not just HBO streaming. I'm seeing a ton of non-HBO shows that make Max seem more like another full streaming service. Go figure. Like we need another one of THOSE.

Also also... a bunch of HBO series end up showing up in other streaming services eventually, so you might not be able to watch them brand-new but could eventually watch them through something like Netflix.
