I think HBO is blowing smoke up the cable companies ass, and they are carefully calculating when to 'cut the cord' so to speak. HBOGO is just too slick of an application to have been an afterthought freebie for it's current customers. We're talking a very well designed and implemented web app, iPad app, and server side component. Does HBO really think that will entice new subscribers, or keep unhappy subscribers from canceling? I highly doubt it. I wouldn't be surprised if HBO is counting each and every hit and contemplating just how much money they'll make when that day comes.
