Nice to see them add similarities to the movie detail pages, though not some of the older titles.

Re: HBO Max Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
It's mind boggling that this service has been live for about 5 months and still has no deal with Roku and Amazon.
Peacock at least decided to play hard ball and threaten to pull the plug on other NBC streaming services so that forced Roku to cave.

Re: HBO Max Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
They are already dumping the WarnerMax label on films. It will just be under the Warner Bros. Pictures.

Once again, many notable titles are being cycled out of HBO Max in November. Fans can revisit Aquaman, The Dark Knight, and Batman Begins before they leave. The Conversation and Dog Day Afternoon are must-see classics that every moviegoer should take the time to see. Before The Devil Knows You’re Dead is another gem that needs more love. And to much demise, a slew of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle films are also saying goodbye for now. Everything leaving HBO Max in November can be found below.Leaving November 4

Re: HBO Max Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
Seriously. They wait long enough, it might not matter. I know HBO is a huge name, but they're burning some momentum here.
I'm one of those stats because I did activate but I've watched a total of 4 hours of content. It was hassle enough activating, without the hassle of considering getting a new piece of hardware to add or replace my current infrastructure.

Re: HBO Max Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
Yeah, but....I just don't care that much. I'm not going to buy another device (actually 2 more, for 2 tvs) and sideload software because two companies are in a pissing contest. While I would like to access it, especially since prior to its release they hyped up "AT&T customers get discounts on it!" before saying "but can't use it on the 2 biggest platforms [at the time]", I don't want to work that hard at it. There's enough other streaming services, I can live just fine without it.
Rather than activations, they should also have to disclaim hours viewed monthly per account or number of 'active accounts' or something, because it would be interesting (to me, and possibly to content providers) to see how many 'inactive' accounts they have.

Re: HBO Max Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
Yeah, but....I just don't care that much. I'm not going to buy another device (actually 2 more, for 2 tvs) and sideload software because two companies are in a pissing contest. While I would like to access it, especially since prior to its release they hyped up "AT&T customers get discounts on it!" before saying "but can't use it on the 2 biggest platforms [at the time]", I don't want to work that hard at it. There's enough other streaming services, I can live just fine without it.

I mostly watch Peacock TV and HBO Max(both sideloaded) on my fire TV and fire stick.
You will always need to buy new devices at some time because Roku won't update their older units.

Yep, I barely use HBO Max since my Fire sticks are in the bedroom and I greatly prefer the Roku on my main TV. Not a huge loss right now.

I should buy another Fire stick since they aren't very expensive.

I'll need new devices sometime, sure. Not now. I'll need a new car sometime too but I hope to get another 150k miles from mine.
When that time comes, I'll consider the current hardware offerings and convert over. Right now I've got Rokus, smart TVs, and Xbox One I use for streaming services. I'm not going to add multiple iterations of a new element, or switch over, for one streaming service.
I like the Roku interface, my wife likes the TV's interface. Plus, as much money as i spend with Amazon, I'm OK tossing a little to someone else, and from what I've seen, the FireTV interface doesn't look as good/user-friendly to me as Roku's (or even the smart TVs). Amazon Prime Video is the streaming service I like navigating the least, so if it's anything like that, another reason I'm not rushing.
I care enough to complain here
and to tweet @ HBO once or twice, but not enough to convert over.
I've also only watched one episode of anything on Peacock and converted my free trial paid account to free.
Maybe I'm just overwhelmed - there's no shortage of stuff to watch so I'm willing to jump through fewer hoops.

I am annoyed that it's not on the PS5 since it's been on the PS4 since the service launched.

Re: HBO Max Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
Yeah, thats fucking stupid. And more stupid that is still not available on Roku. When the Warnermedia sees that they didnt reach the projections they had expected with HBOMax, theyll only have to look in the mirror for who to blame.

I have had --zero-- problems with the HBO Max sideload while the Peacock TV sideload has been a pain in my ass.

So you delete the sideloaded app and install this one. Isn’t same app? How do you it’s official?

The official HBO Max app should be available via the Amazon app store or the HBO app on Amazon will update automatically to HBO Max.

You'll have to install the official app yourself. If you want you can keep both versions active.
