AT&T’s upcoming new streamer is finally official and for me personally, there are two main takeaways from last night’s big event. First, HBO Max is going to be jam-packed full of exclusive and licensed content when it launches in May 2020. Second, HBO Max is overpriced at $15 per month and among the major players, it’s definitely the most skippable. Sure, the service will host some of the most popular shows out there from third-party studios like Friends, The Big Bang Theory, The West Wing, and South Park. And sure, there will be plenty of original content as well as all the HBO shows we know and love. But Netflix is still king and Disney+ is still the hottest new service set to launch — at half the price, I might add. HBO Max indeed looks appealing, but Netflix’s ever-expanding catalog and the 629 titles set to be available on Disney+ at launch alone should be more than enough content for one lifetime.
