It’s not HBO Now or HBO Go — it’s just HBO. Well, or HBO Max. WarnerMedia is trying to clean up the confusion with the many product names associated with the premium cable brand. …
The HBO Go app will be removed from platform partners as of July 31, 2020; customers who have pay-TV providers that don’t have HBO Max deals will be able to continue to authenticate into hbogo.com through Aug. 31., Charter, Altice USA, Cox, Verizon, as well as AT&T-owned DirecTV and affiliates of the National Cable Television Cooperative , a consortium of smaller cable operators..
“Most customers who have traditionally used HBO Go to stream HBO programming are now able to do so via HBO Max, which offers access to all of HBO together with so much more,” a WarnerMedia spokesperson said. But — again — note that HBO Max still isn’t available on Roku or Fire TV. What about HBO subscribers with pay-TV providers that do not have HBO Max deals? “For those few remaining distributors, we’re committed to making HBO Max available on every platform possible to as many viewers as possible so hope to get those deals done soon, too,” the WarnerMedia rep said.
WarnerMedia says it will not publicly disclose HBO Max subscriber numbers before AT&T’s second-quarter 2020 earnings release next month.
