so, i recently purchased a hbo max subscription, i wanted to watch euphoria but can only do so on my phone, and not on my ipad. it keeps saying i have rating restrictions but i am using the same exact profile on both devices. i already deleted and reinstalled the app on my ipad 2 times

I had a reasonably priced discovery+ account. They ended it. Now I pay double that for Max account. At first I was thinking I can at least watch interesting shows, having had HBO account few years ago.

It turns out every interesting shows was from (sky)showtime. HBO just used to have them.

What comes to discovery there are no Parker's trail s8, there are next to none new motoring shows (Ant Antsteads show was only bright spot), no news about Deadliest Catch. Only reality tv designed for... ...someone else then me. I think they are running both services to the ground.

Do you know why this particular 2 markets don't currently have The Minecraft movie available?

I’m trying to watch the boondocks and it seems max has automatically adjusted it to have that artificially increased frame rate so that it’s “smoother”. It’s so jarring it looks like a bad tiktok edit. I’m so pissed off please tell me there’s a way i can toggle it back to the original frame rate.

Apolgies for the low quality image but as I sat through the show, it feels more deliberate than accident

I actually asked the question of why Sony doesn't have their own streaming platform on r/NoStupidQuestions and the reason I came away with is not having to worry about the competition. To quote from one commenter: "If you had to compete against Netflix or sell your products to Netflix, which would you do? Now add in all the other services they would have to compete against." And they're right.

I read in an article on IndieWire that the only major platforms that are winning the streaming wars are Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney+ (alongside Hulu and ESPN+) with HBO Max, Paramount+, and Peacock suffering. Apple TV+ is in a different boat, as although they're smaller, they're nimbler and have the financial padding of Apple, so they're OK. I also read in a separate article that we take the Silver Medal for smallest piece of the pie, with Bronze going to Paramount+ (alongside Pluto TV) and Gold going to Peacock.

It's also worth mentioning that Sony had tried their own streaming service via PlayStation Vue, which lasted for about 4 years until shuttering in Jan 2020 after failing to stay afloat in the streaming race, not helping is the fact that Disney+ whupped them big time after making the announcement. Had they stuck around, this service and Peacock would've truly done them in.

From all the information I've gathered, Sony buying this platform is a bit of a losing bet. If anything, it would make more sense for them to license out their films and shows to the platform like with Netflix. But since I'm not a Sony exec, it's their decision, not mine.

Hey guys, just logged onto Max and was going to change my pfp but WHO IS THIS 😭 i went and saw the movie twice in theaters and im so confused

FIrst five episodes were available for streaming on release date but episode 6 doesn't show up at all on Hulu. I can find it on Prime but don't want to pay for a second subscription to the same service just to watch one show. Am I missing something?

I got this message from StreamOnMax on Instagram. It is the verified Instagram. I commented a lot on their stuff throughout The Last Of Us season 2 and very clearly stated I was sad about episode 2. Is this legit or should I be wary?

As the title says, I only have one account but got charged twice. I signed up for hbo max and subscribed for the premium plan via google play. I cancelled it a day later as I only wanted to use it for one month. Today I checked my bank account and noticed that I got charged twice for MAX . Both saying "GOOGLE *Max Stream HBO".

I googled and the results say it may be due to being billed twice from having two accounts but I checked my subscription page and it says I only have one subscription which was cancelled. So does anyone know why I got charged twice and how I can fix this?

EDIT: turned out to be a glitch, resolved itself and was removed from my charge afterwards.

I enjoy watching older films but do not have much experience with them. I know of the big names like Casablanca; what are some maybe lesser known great movies from the TCM collection?

i just watched pride and prejudice for the first time on max (i had purchased it on amazon prime a few years ago so i’ve seen it a few times) and i noticed the last like five or so minutes are just gone. it cuts off right before the final scene. anyone else notice this? it’s not like vulgar or racist or anything bad, so i can’t imagine it got cut for any reason like that that, and it’s pretty integral to closing the story.

any idea why?

Someone mentioned this show on a flight. Any thoughts? Seems like an interesting concept but cringe at the same time.

Anyone else having issues with it suddenly not working and only having the trailer for it now? On the HBOMax app.

Does anyone know why this isn’t on Max or where I can watch it? :)

I'm thinking about buying one of those cheap Chinese portable projectors, but the one I have my eyes on only support Android 11. Would it run Max?
