OT HBO Now - arkstfan - 03-06-2015 12:01 AM

Chatter is it is coming in at $15 instead of a non-cable premium price. Through the various articles there is some speculation that some of HBO Go offerings will not be available on HBO Now to appease cable.

Rollout will be on Apple TV but as yet it doesn't appear there will be an exclusive period but I wouldn't be stunned by an exclusive period if Apple is being asked to give them two icons on the menu (HBO Now and HBO Go) be fascinating to see if HBO will allow you to subscribe via the iTunes store since Apple takes a big piece.

They can't offer much less than what is on HBOGO. Which isn't much. If they want to make this a success then they will have to up the content.

HBO GO has about just about every show that HBO has made in the last 15 years, which is actually a lot.

Yes, HBO GO gets criticized a lot but I don't get it. I've been able to watch a lot of stuff the last few years thanks to it.
