    Good to see the free market in action. I’m sure this merge will be good for consumers, encourage innovation, and ensure that the barriers to entry are not set too high.

    Quality will go down for all 3 and now they’ll cancel even more shows before they complete.

    Aw man, HBO was the only streaming service I kind of liked.

    Was it mainly for Studio Ghibli movies? Yes.

    Can’t wait for the price hikes to continue.

      Well, at least HBO content might become accessible through a decent UI and keep the same name for more than six months.

        I just can’t wait to read about the creative ways in which they screw up the name next. “Netflix presents Max HBO Cinemas”.
