HBO has strong content, an amazing brand, and a mobile app. They can turn around tomorrow and sell a streaming service for $10 that will get tons of subscribers.
But right up until that point, they will say cable is great and will never go down.
Thinking this is "claim chowder" is just thinking too small and literally.
- libraryatnight 15y agoThis is what I was thinking. I almost wrote a rant about how it's unfortunate that HBO, a network that makes some pretty awesome shows, isn't getting with the times etc etc. Then, I thought I should probably just hold my tongue and watch what happens. I suspect the scenario you describe is correct, they'll defend cable up until they launch their own service.
