- HBO Max is the newest player in the Streaming Wars, launching on Wednesday for $15/month for new subscribers and including 10,000 hours of content to start with.
- One of the most high-profile additions to the streamer, however, won’t actually arrive until 2021.
- That’s when HBO Max will add the long-awaited director’s cut of Zack Snyder’s Justice League, often referred to by fans as the “Snyder Cut.”
HBO Max, the new streaming service from AT&T’s WarnerMedia that executives hope can stand as a credible threat to Netflix, launched with much fanfare on Wednesday and brings subscribers a value proposition that includes 10,000 hours of content right out of the gate. If you’re a new subscriber, the price is a bit steep compared to other streaming products (at $15/month) — but, at the same time, millions of people will have access to HBO Max right away for free, either because they’re already an HBO subscriber or they’re existing AT&T customers. If you’re on AT&T’s best wireless plan, for example, you can get HBO Max at no extra charge (the AT&T Unlimited Elite plan, which includes the new streamer, at $50 per line a month). Additionally, customers who already have HBO through AT&T now have instant access to HBO Max at no extra charge.
